Best Western Airport 85 Motel

Place is decent, near the airport, the DFO shopping and also a woolies supermarket down the road. But would be hard pressed to get a good night sleep because cars are park just outside you bedroom. We hit the sack at 9pm, was woken up at 11pm by a driver revving his car to go out and again at 2am when he came back, than at 5am a family was loading up their vehicle for a early start and its was so noisy with the children talking loudly. Also could not have a proper shower because the water was not draining fast enough, so you got to stop and wait for the water to drain off and start your shower again, if not the water would flow out onto the bathroom area, think the drain hole have not be clear for a long time. Could not get any service once the office is close. less

We stayed as a family of 5 before flying overseas. Upon departure we were incorrectly charged $25 for a missing cushion which we did not take. Room was dirty and previous occupants items were left behind including dirty socks and a dummy. Would not recommend for a family. Very small and noisy. Be careful of fees taken after leaving... less

Honestly, a 3.5 Star review. Firstly the positives: this place is clean, beds are comfortable, staff are friendly, free wifi, nice garden area. It’s close to Ascot racecourse and Portside, though over a km walk so it depends on your time here or fitness for this to be classed as quick access. Racecourse road is very close for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and it’s only a $7 Uber to get to eat street! (Do yourself a fav and head there before you boot!). I felt the place was a little overpriced. There are a few things that make it feel less than a 4 Star, such as a 3-pin stream shower, window looking out over a balcony that you can’t access and view over the car park, thin walls that allow you to hear your neighbours and the railway line opposite the hotel. There are a lot of elements that remove this small suburban dwelling from the likes of a 4 Star city hotel, and I think that’s the key to reading these reviews. For a small, privately run motel in the burbs, they’re really quite good, and put obvious effort into keeping the place in good condition. All in all, If you’re looking for a relatively quiet, safe and comfortable place to sleep between days out, This is a good option. I wouldn’t choose this if staying in your room was on the agenda. less

Return visit and very convenient to the airport. Here for the Australia vs South Africa game. Clean rooms and very good price compared to the city. Walk to Portside and Restaurants close by. Transfer option great value & service. less

This was a convenient location for a traveller headed for the airport. The service was fast and friendly. My room was very comfortable, clean, and quiet. It was a bit of a hike to the nearest restaurant, but then, I needed to stretch after a long drive. The room was fairly expensive, but that is what one expects if one is staying so close to a major international airport. I would stay here again. less
