The Adelaide Motel is superbly located near the hospital and provides strong recommendations. The rooms are clean and tidy, but may be too small for a group of four. The service was exceptional, with helpful and friendly staff. The location is excellent, conveniently close to a supermarket and bus stops. The dining options are convenient, being in proximity to a Countdown store. The facilities offered are top-notch.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative experiences. The rooms were spotlessly clean and fresh, providing a comfortable and quiet environment at a reasonable price with the added bonus of free parking. However, there were some cleanliness issues like mould on windows and dirt that needed attention. The service was overall great, with understanding staff members and a perfect location for my son's activities. The location was convenient for my needs, being close to everything required but some maintenance issues were noticeable. The dining options did not live up to expectations, and facilities were lacking in some areas but satisfactory overall.

The hotel had some noisy loose floorboards in the room, but it was clean and had essential amenities. The rooms were a bit small, yet functional for our needs during the stay. The owners were incredibly friendly and allowed us to use their parking even after checkout, which was a lovely gesture. The location was perfect for us, close to bus stops, a hospital, shops, and the city. The front desk staff was great and made our stay good value for the money.

The hotel was in a convenient location near the hospital and Countdown, making it easy to access amenities. The rooms were functional but lacked cleanliness, and the pricing seemed a bit steep for the cramped single bed area. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond to assist us.

The hotel was quite small but clean, had all the amenities we needed, and was very convenient for our needs. However, there was no air conditioning or fan in the rooms, so we had to leave the door open half the night, and the washbasin was often blocked after use.

The motel's location was perfect for our needs, very handy and close to the shops. The staff were super friendly and very good at resolving any issues that arose, making our stay pleasant. The rooms, though small for three adults, were spotlessly clean with a pleasant fragrance. However, the dining experience was disappointing as the paid-for items were not honored, and there were limited food options available.

I stayed at the hotel for 4 nights and found the rooms to be very clean with a newly renovated bathroom, although they were on the smaller side. The staff was very helpful and tried to make our visit as comfortable as possible. The location was very handy for accessing the hospital, Countdown, and eating places within a 2-minute walk, with free parking available. However, the size of the parking spaces was quite tight. The dining experience was not the best, with some issues related to honoured payments. Overall, the hotel offered good value for the money.
