Super friendly welcome from reception as soon as arrived. Great recommendation for a lovely local cafe to grab lunch just down the road. Room spotlessly clean and good size, I forgot to request a cot in advance but this was sorted and brought to the room within minutes. Handy location to easily get into Glenelg, and close to the airport. Would definitely stay again.

Twin standard room. Very spacious, for family of 3, bathroom was good and the shower pressure was amazing. I like it how you can park your car in front of your room, although it was off the main road, it was quiet and secure, close to shops and beach, great location and value for your money.

Yes room was in good condition. After hours check in was nerve wraking when the key arrangements hadn't been sent through by the time our plane landed. It was also disconcerting when the manager tried to get into our room at 11pm....we were fast asleep. lucky we had the chain on the door.
