Eaglehawk Motel Bendigo

A simple one-nighter. Very well priced facility, particularly thanks to Trip.com. Positioned very close to an event we were attending, and close enough to everything Bendigo has to offer. The motel is definitely old and needs a full refurb. However, my opinion is that I can't see the value in doing this (certainly as the cost would be perhaps more than it's worth), and of course the cost to stay would rise significantly. Frankly, its age didn't bother us as it was well presented, clean, had pretty everything you could want, the TV was nicely setup, the bed comfy, we couldn't have asked for more really. If refurbed, I don't believe the additional cost would work in that I suspect the price would have to double at least, therefore diminishing the attraction of a well priced facility. I give it a tick.

The property was conveniently located near the Bendigo Showgrounds. Staff were helpful in allowing me to pick up the keys early so I could grab them before my event. Room was clean and as pictured. This isn't a modern mote but don't hold that against it, the beds were comfortable, it was tidy and I would happily book again.

A bunch of young bucks wandered through the car park at 0200hrs, they were very very noisy.
