Blue Gums Hotel Motel

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.

Friendly staff, rooms just behind the dining area,

Quiet clean Offstreet parking

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.

Room was not cleaned when we arrived. Had to wait for it to be cleaned before using it. Took security deposit for room incorrectly and 5then it took a week to get it returned.

Clean comfortable room and friendly staff.

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

The check in was gas and the staff were really friendly. Was a great location the room was clean and tidy

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.

Clean room comfortable beds quiet

Breakfast was enjoyable. Black markings on walls from chairs noted.

Room was clean and fresh, variety of breakfast great, staff friendly and obliging, will definitely stay again and recommend to others.

It is what it is. The Dining and staff were excellent. But taking a $200 deposit for a very below average room was a bit over the top. The bathrooms are terrible. The tv my son’s room didn’t work, sound no pictures.

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

Property is old and has not ever been refurbished tired and very dated

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

Bathroom could do with a renovation as well as the cabinet in main room. More suitcase benches would be an advantage too.

It was a good night's sleep for the price. Beds were comfortable, aircon helped with the cold.

Overall it was fine. Just the beds were awful. Hard as rocks and the air con was extremely loud.

Noisiest AC ever

Staff were awesome

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
