Several guests disliked a $200 security deposit and slow refunds. The location is described as convenient for local visits, though it is not close to the airport. Expect a budget-friendly stay in older, variable rooms.

1. We had no "view" except of a broken fence. 2. There was no hot water ...we were not advised when booking in. We had to use our mobile to complain (there was no room telephone) only to be told that they were aware of it and it would eventually be fixed. 3. The bathroom sink was badly broken.It had been very roughly/unhygienically patched with off white silicone. 4. The bed had rollers that moved far too easily. So much so that by wife rose during the night, the bed suddenly moved and she fell on the floor abrading her arm necessitating self administered first aid at 4 am. There was no phone available to alert management 5. The carpet had NO underlay...which is a mandate for concrete floors. This exacerbated her injury. 6. The air conditioner was very noisy, one had to stand un-safely on a chair to turn it on to heat/cool. 7. The crockery was not properly washed. 8. The small bench upon which one prepared breakfast/coffe etc was sticky and badly marked/scratched. 9. The car parking space- minimal, our vehicle jutted out into the entry lane. We were in unit 1 10. We were charged a refundable $200 deposit on the room, which we were not previously informed about by expedia. We are STILL waiting for the refund a full week later. 11. The"service door"was not lockable meaning that the unit could easily be entered by anyone with a key or keen desire to get in.We didn't feel safe to leave, and had to reassure ourselves by blocking the door with a chair when we left.

Bathoom was clean, but wall near beds was dirty. Room was well stocked for breakfast, I especially appreciated the lactose free milk given to me for my stay, bed could be more comfortable. Airconditioner was loud and rattled. Staff were awesome, meals were beautiful. Walkway to dining room is very steep and has dangerous potholes especially hard for disabled to get to dining room and back. Outside light timer didn't work, lights didn't turn on until after 10pm, which made using the steep walkway even harder.

For a low cost stopover this is your place. The rooms are tired and worn with stains on the walls, damaged sink, plumbing that rings and stutters, damaged bench top, and an overpowering mould smell. I woke the next day with a head ach from the smell, and tiny insects crawling all over my body and in my hair / beard. I was forced to buy some flee and tick wash to remove them

Staff were nice but the aged rooms don't leave a positive impact on guests. Our friends who we booked for 2 nights left after two and said it was a Dive!!. Their first time in Adelaide for 30 years and only stayed because we live close by. Also the price was much higher than expected and so they went to a top hotel in Modbury for just $30 on extra

We had a very late check in and contacted the hotel. They were very friendly and nothing was any trouble. The breakfast supplied was great for the price we paid. Very happy, very comfortable. We will be travelling to Adelaide quite a bit over the next few months and this is the first place we will look at to stay

The property is a fair way from airport but that was our choice as it was handy to locations we needed to visit. Shower was terrible and needs work . Room very spacious and staff good. excellent hotel bistro but a little pricy but food excellent

Although room fixtures were dated, it was comfortable and spotlessly clean. Breakfast supplies were sufficient and restocked each day. Great value for the price. Great stay at this motel.

Bathoom was clean, but wall near beds was dirty. Room was well stocked for breakfast, I especially appreciated the lactose free milk given to me for my stay, bed could be more comfortable. Airconditioner was loud and rattled. Staff were awesome, meals were beautiful. Walkway to dining room is very steep and has dangerous potholes especially hard for disabled to get to dining room and back. Outside light timer didn't work, lights didn't turn on until after 10pm, which made using the steep walkway even harder.

We had a very late check in and contacted the hotel. They were very friendly and nothing was any trouble. The breakfast supplied was great for the price we paid. Very happy, very comfortable. We will be travelling to Adelaide quite a bit over the next few months and this is the first place we will look at to stay

It was difficult to work out where to check in, but the worker was amazing. The bathroom light flickered and the kettle had to use the TVs powerpoint, but apart from that it was a pretty good stay. Heaps of breakfast materials. Unsure how to wash them as couldnt fill up anything with water because bathroom sink was small. Im dairy free so couldnt have butter and I always bring my own milk. If youve no allergies you're good to go. Carparking good cause you parked in front of your unit. Guaranteed carpark therefore.

The rooms are very old but comfortable and clean. There is a $200 bond we weren’t prepared for, but luckily had sufficient funds to cover it. Be aware though, if paid by credit card it can take a week to drop off your ‘pending transactions’ and being able to access to those funds again. Suggestion & Feedback:- There are no lights when making your way from the hotel dining area to the rooms. Have your phone flashlight at the ready. This a safety issue as the ground is uneven and sloping. Recommend Blue Gums install sensor lights.
