Recently stayed here for 3 nights booking 2 rooms for our group.(both rooms appeared to be similar)

The check in process was simple and the staff were friendly.

Whilst this motel is old the rooms have undergone some renovations with fresh and clean bathrooms and new carpet and paint throughout which is a great touch, obviously there are newish owners and they are trying to get this back up to a standard that people will love but it takes time, however our main room looked out onto the car park and basically you couldn't open your blinds if you wanted any privacy as there was no sheer curtains that would allow the blinds to be opened and allow light in without everyone peering in, the other thing we noticed was that the couch/fold out bed, looked like it was from the 90's and didn't go with the rest of the room decor, it also had a wall light that was also outdated, just some things that would make the whole room look modern if updated.

The bed whilst it was comfortable, it was two singles beds joined together with a very thin mattress topper, but you could feel the joins/edges of the bed any time you went near the centre of the bed, so that part was annoying.

They advertise a restaurant but it looks like it doesn't operate so you will need to eat elsewhere, but there are a few options reasonably close by.

I am sure given time and more travellers staying here the owners will be able to carry out more updates and this place will be wonderful once again, we would definitely stay here again if needing a motel in Mildura.

Has Potential

Visiting with friends the family unit was well equipped for our stay. Microwave and full size fridge. Outdoor table and chairs. Pool was being repaired but to cold to swim. The motel is on a Main Street but very quiet inside. Would definitely stay next time we are in town.

Quite and clean,

The motel is not far from shops, the room is clean and the bed comfortable but we were disappinted to find the TV not working and the next morning that there was no hairdryer provided - I did miss this in the blurb.

Comfortable

Reading some past reviews this motel must have been refurbished since 2020. Bathroom was modern with lots of hot water, everything  spotless and well thought out.
Very good value, and a quiet nights sleep, for the price.

Excellent for a budget motel

Super clean rooms.. super obliging staff.. plenty of parking. We were towing a large trailer and staff helped us out with a tarp when it rained overnight . So thoughtful of them to help us out. Would definitely stay here again. The hotel is close to town and food outlets.

Super obliging staff.. great stay

I stayed here last weekend with my kids and my friend and her kids, we had a lovely time the owner was very friendly and went out of his way to ensure we were happy with everything. We would definitely stay again 

Weekend away

The Cottonwood Motel was one of Mildura’s best - sadly that is in the distant past! We booked through our agents 2 nights at $130 a night. Flying to Mildura in the evening at +40c temperatures one cannot begin to imagine the disappointment to arrive at this establishment. New owners advised previous owners let it run down. Not confident the new owners are experienced at running such a business.
This is not an establishment I would ever consider staying at - dreadful. Booked out and went elsewhere. Good luck for the future as you’ll need it! By the way it advertised a restaurant - not any more just a storage area now. You’ll recognise the Cottonwood as the front sign has a hole in it and the fence is falling down.

Dreadful

I was starting to get worried, had passed a few motels with no vacancies when the Cottonwood came up.  The room was a good size, reasonably clean, although under the bed looked as though it would do with a bit of attention with the vacuum.  reception was friendly, the bathroom was clean.  Wi Fi coverage was a bit "iffy" but all in all it was a suitable stopover.

Needed a bed for the night

The room was a great size, but bedcovers were old, bathroom was recently renovated and was big but unfortunately one in our family only got a hot shower, there was no hot water for my child and husband, very disappointing

Good sized room

First room smelt of cigarette smoke. Graffiti from 2001 on the wall, spider webs and dust. When I moved the bed it was filthy underneath the toilet cistern leaked. Moved rooms empty chip packet under bed although not as much dust. Shower head broken. Found massage oil under bed later. Sheets were clean coverlet dirty, bed was sagging.
