Chelisa

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I strongly urge people to NOT stay at this hotel. After raising some concerns about vomit and spit being over the walls, shower head not working etc. The manager was very aggressive towards me and my daughter. This ‘man’ verbally abused my 13 year old daughter and screamed at her to get out of our car and then continued to scream at her, scaring her and triggering anxiety. He was swearing at me, threatening to physically remove me from the building, screaming in my face, shaking his hand in my face and threatening me, as well as threatening to call the police and charge me with trespassing, then refusing to let me stay the night after I had paid, and refused a refund. Due to my threatened safety I contacted the police If you read reviews on the Footscray Inn, this has happened multiple times to other people. DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL

The sofa was so dirty it looked like it had been picked up from the streets! If it wasnt too late in the night i would not stay here at all! How can the management think that such dirty sofa would be ok! I couldnt trust the cleanliness of the bed or anything else! Stay away from this place! I have pictures but this survey doesnt allow any pics upload. You have to see it to believe it!
