The street where this motel is located, this is not the fault of APX motel group, it's more to do with the local council and surrounding buildings/restaurants to keep the street to a reasonably clean condition, rental bikes blocking the narrow footpath, cigarette butts all over the place doesn't make for a very appealing welcome to the neighbourhood.

They took $400 holding deposit for 2 rooms, today is 9days since checked out and still haven't received my refund. Contacted them numerous times they said 5 days, this is absolutely ridiculous as it is only a holding bond. Will never stay or recommend this hotel.
