- Steven (3/5): -
- Jeanette (3/5): Was very disappointed with condition of room - The staff were friendly Had a lady with a walker and she could not even get in the door cause the door hit the bed and then could not use it inside as room too small. Towels had marks and needed changing. No blanket on one of the beds so needed one of those. Pipes of other units were behind ours and made noises. The trucks were so noisy. The kettle was disgraceful and could not be used. Carpets needed deep clean. Walls of room were covered in contact not wallpaper.
- Belas (7/5): -
- Darren (8/5): Fairly priced place to stay on the outskirts of Adelaide - Travelling to Gather Round we wanted to stay somewhere we could shower, sleep, that was clean & wasn't ridiculously overpriced. This place delivered, the manager was also very friendly. The bed wasn't the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in, but it did the job
- Ikram (7/5): Ok - Location Small for a family of 5
- Aleesha (7/5): Great location and great price - Great location, room was perfectly adequate for our needs as we weren’t there much Needs some upgrades, shower was awful
- Peter (6/5): Pleasant - Location was good, Bed was very comfortable, generally quiet area, parking close by. Location of spa bath, bathroom was a bit cramed, kitchen area very minimal, lacking cupboard / bench space, a bit out dated
- Sarah O'Shanassy (6/5): - It was nice The trucks breaks are way too loud ad
- Derek (10/5): - microwave and free parking
- Anthony (7/5): -
- Caleb (3/5): -
- Inais (6/5): -
- Ed Mariella (8/5): -
- Elaine (3/5): It was disgusting. - Nothing Tiny bathroom which was also very slippery and dangerous; mould throughout the room.
No spare pillows. No additional blankets for the cold.
- Dianne (9/5): Very pleasant place to stay - We’ll set out for the price. Quiet enough area. Well received at reception. I had a bit of a problem with the. Booking website and had to ring to change some details, the manager/owner was very helpful in accommodating me with the mess up. Very friendly. Not much at all. Only stayed one night but we both slept well and comfortably.
- Sarah (6/5): For a last minute one night stay it was fine. - Location was easily accessible. The family next door- the noise went through the whole night.
Shower was a little less desirable but okay.
- Abhaya (3/5): Because of this misleading advertisement we had a bad time. - Beds were comfortable. The advertisement showed a kitchen sink. Microwave and the kitchen sink was the main reason we selected this room. Microwave, plates and utensils were there. But there was no way to wash the dishes. The sink inside the bathroom was an ultra small one with two separate hot and cold taps(old passion) and there was no way to clean dishes.
- Raman (3/5): - Old property requires maintenance. Toilet/bathroom was extra small. Kitchenet was just a small table. Location
- Nancy (6/5): -
- Marcus (2/5): This place shouldn't be on Booking.com - This is more of a hostel for what (with respect) look like homeless people than tourists. It is grim. Hideous woodchip wallpaper with ugly brown paint, filthy carpets and shocking front door.
- Sharon (10/5): It was affordable, co - Great Not Having spring water for drinking in the fridge
- Syed (7/5): -
- Syed (6/5): -
- Thomas (1/5): - Easy access Aircon heater not working properly
Television not working
SPA bath not bubbling
Bathroom cabinets all rusted
- Lena (7/5): Basic but good. Filled all our needs and staff was great - Good location for us, we travelled for doctor appointments and they where all near by.
Room was basic but good. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Noise from the road was loud. especially the trucks coming down the hill from mt baker rd. Also, a few other guest I found looked a bit suspicious. I was a bit worried about our car.
- Thomas (5/5): Good for overnight at short notice.friendly staff - Affordable Shower drain struggles to drain
Road noise which can’t be helped
- tara (1/5): Asked for refund on one night as we left and booked elsewhere - Bathroom was flooded. Smelled. Kitchenette was a plastic bucket with cloths. Door not even able to open properly in room with single beds- so tiny.

- Delicia Nazarena (7/5): - The location was good. It was far from the beach, but you could go to the city center by bus in 20 minutes.
The staff was very friendly and helped us when we needed something. The room didn’t have a kitchen sink, and the bathroom sink was very small, which was uncomfortable.
- Jocelyn (7/5): -
- Patel (6/5): -
- Scott (8/5): Excellent and convenient - Cleanliness, smelt very clean, beds were comfortable, staff accommodated our boater trailer by offering the parking place in front of reception The curtains let in a lot of car park lighting and it was difficult to get the water to wash the dishes
- Micah (5/5): -
- Trent (6/5): - Room noise was fine
Better privacy from neighbours would be good
- Stefan (7/5): -
- Mary and Anthony Birch (5/5): Okay for an overnight stay - The bed was comfortable. It was a bit dated and the bathroom was tiny. The other guests were noisy.
- Carly (8/5): - The manager was fantastic. We were checking in late and out early. He made sure everything was sorted for us.
Can not fault management at all. Was a little pricey for the quality of the room.
- John (9/5): Great value for money when you realise that you get more than what you paid for. - Location ideal for getting me to the racetrack. Large rooms with comfortable beds. Very quiet even though it was so close to Mount Barker Road. Off road parking as well. Rooms had microwaves and eating utensils which was ideal. Nothing really other than a mix up over an extra night.
- Josh (4/5): - The bed Everything else

- Sarah (8/5): -
- Sally (6/5): I think the location of the motel was comfortable and adequate to my needs. - The bed and room were both comfortable. The traffic noise took a bit of getting used to and it was disappointing that most of the time was unable to get television reception.

- Gemma (10/5): Exceptional -
- brenton (10/5): - Best service, love these guys!
- Steve (4/5): - The photos shown on wotif were NOTHING like the room I got given. Based on the pics I chose this one over Jackson’s down the road which was $18 cheaper.- mistake. On opening up the room it stunk of cigarettes as well.

- Danielle (5/5): Passable - Very old and run down. The bedding was stiff and old. Pillows were like rocks
- Stacey (5/5): Passable - A very basic stay. We booked 3 beds, but only got two and the city was fully booked out, so partner I was staying with slept on the floor. Not the cleanest place and facilities were in a state of disrepair (shower curtain rod not affixed, wall lifting due to moisture). Too much to mention. Was close to city though, however wouldn't op to stay here again.
- Ann (4/5): - At least the room was clean and bed comfortable. The smell of stale cigarette smoke was overpowering, the crack in wall huge. It’s old and worn out. Traffic noise bad but obviously not the fault of motel. Long term residents are a bit disconcerting. Won’t be back.
- Upul (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nothnqgel (4/5): Disappointing - For the room I had, there wasn't a sink to wash dishes. Not sure how the other rooms were, my room, i could hear all traffic and neighbours whislt all my window's close..
- Nelsen (8/5): Very good -
- Eagle (8/5): Very good -
- Gladys (9/5): Superb -
- LEKAM (4/5): - No value for money.
- Anna (10/5): Amazing and will be staying here from now on when I come down for my sons heart check up apps - Honestly this place was hands down the best place I’ve stayed very clean smells amazing and they have plates and bowls other places I’ve stayed didn’t even have that
The price is amazing and the owners are lovely ppl very friendly and helpful I couldn’t fault this place
- Anna (10/5): Stress free - Rooms are nice n clean beds are comfortable it’s a nice place the owners lovely
- Alexn (9/5): Cheap and cheerful, very helpful and friendly staff - and lots of power-points! - My second stay here, as cheap and cheerful as the first :). One point of note in addition to what I've previously written is the fantastic number of power-points close to the beds!, plus in the 'kitchen' area! A real time- and frustration-saver when charging up *multiple* devices at once!
- Alexn (9/5): Cheap and cheerful, comfortable beds, friendly helpful staff - and lots of power-points! - As I've said in two previous reviews, cheap and cheerful, with very friendly and helpful staff, very comfortable beds, good facilities and a huge number of power-points close to the bedside tables, which made for ultra-convenient charging of multiple electronic devices!
