Property was not in great condition and grubby. The staff were not inviting or friendly. Only plus was it’s location, much nicer hotels in the area in the same price range. Don’t let the pictures of the rooms fool you.

The actual motel room was nice, bathroom a bit on the older side though. Nice and clean in room. In the hallway of motel there was a water leak in Stairwell. The carpet needed replacing and no money had been spent on the gardens. The outside had been let go I think it may be demolished soon. Very convenient location and free parking was good

Staff were unfriendly on checking in. No after hours number for a young guest locked out of her room - very concerning as she slept on the couch in the reception area until early morning shift staff arrived. Staff informed me motel is not bein staffed or updating any facilities as moving to other premises soon. Not good enough people.

Comfy room with basic but acceptable amenities. There is no restaurant or room service but it's not a problem since it's a stone's throw from Jetty Road and its myriad restaurants and cafes. Good value for money given it's prime location and a good place to stay even if you don't have a car.

The staff were very friendly and accommodating, they put us on the top floor and ss i have a phobia on heights (i failed to mention this when we booked) when i went down to explain my situation they didn't hesitate to put us on the ground floor, the rooms were a good size and extremely clean and comfortable, when staying in Glenelg again we will definitely stay there again, as its location is perfect to look around the area.
