Unfortunately, it falls short in customer service and cleanliness, due to a lack of training/staffing I suspect. However, there were a few staff that were very helpful and they made a difference to my stay. ##### Margaret Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Elaine 27 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Nothing new about the hotel. Bed was comfortable. Room clean but don't look to close. Well worth the money.

Difficult to find as signage is limited. ##### Joelleen Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Brigitte 21 Jan 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Review of n°4 room New Whyalla Hotel 10 Gowrie av No private parking,(street parking). Wasn't told that the restaurant wasn't operating that night ( reason why i chose that hotel to have access to dinning). Someone opened our door while we were inside the room. After going to complaint about it, i was told that it was a personal member who had the spare key by mistake. We will not comeback to that hotel, overall not worthy of the $99 we paid. ##### Brigitte Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Leslye 18 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities We came from Adelaide for a 50th party overnight so really just needed somewhere to sleep, however the electricity kept shutting down on one side of the room which was very frustrating. The room is also in dire straits of an upgrade!! The staff were very helpful in giving us extension cords to help with our needs but overall a disappointing stay. We wouldn't stay again. ##### Leslye Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Charlie 7 Jul 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities From the outside the entire hotel looks like a prison, and in a dodgy area. Inside hotel was only a few gamers and couple people in the bar. Staff were unwelcoming, seemingly spacey, and claimed there were going to have a busy evening and that it would be an inconvenience to order food from them. Room was very dated and dark, we somehow managed to laugh at the fact we’d booked this room based on a different appearance when booking online. Definitely not worth the stay. ##### Charlie Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Matthew 16 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Crack heads everywhere Bar staff amazing ##### Matthew Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Joshua 12 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Loved the service, the room was very basic which was what i need for only staying for 24 hours Only issue i had when you turning the shower on if the pressure got to high it would fall down. Other than that, was a good and pleasant stay, check in and out was so easy and the staff we polite and friendly ##### Joshua Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Marilyn 8 Jun 2022 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Old Rundown, I think a prison cell would have been bigger. Cold, crammed but the restaurant was good and the staff were very friendly ##### Marilyn Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### wendy 1 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Large comfortable but dated, needed attention. ##### wendy Stayed 1 night in May 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Rafael 11 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good value Good place..good price. ##### Rafael Stayed 1 night in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Harshini 31 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Good place.
