We had booked this place just bcos our 6am Kangaroo Island pickup was just 200 mts away and although it mentions as bagpackers, but also advertises as motel. But I wish I had read some of the reviews, everything about this place is BAD. Even if the accomodation was far from my pickup point, at least stay would have been good! 1. The reception is only open for 5 hours daily and no support afterwards (they dont mention this when booking and you see it only when arrive there). 2. The place overall is filthy as said by other reviewers. They will not change towels or bedsheet for your entire stay. Overall the building is old and rooms needs mojor renovation. 3. The service is pathetic. There is an emergency mobile number but no one responds to that. There is not even soap in the toilet! 4. Our room heat pump wasn't heating and when I called reception in the morning, the manager or owner said he will look into it. But when we returned in the evening it wasn't heating and reception was already closed by then. 5. There is a nightclub next to this building and they play club music till 4am on weekend, so you cant even sleep in peace and no escape as the club is right next door! By now 2 days of our 3 day stay was over, we realised that the management is highly dishonest. But while you are on a trip, you dont want to waste time fighting with motel management. So we were just relieved after our 3 days stay. Will not recommend to anyone visiting Adelaide!!
