My wife and I stayed here for one night on our way towards Perth. As has been noted by others the receptionist was abrupt and offhand. The rooms were old, musty and in need of refurbishment. We opened a window to let in some fresh air and it fell apart as did the little fridge's contents. $125.00 for a room... More

Adequate accommodation, it is affordable but don't plan on staying longer than one night. Better than sleeping in the car! Not very friendly, bar attendant extremely rude and abrupt. Felt like a hindrance and decided to hang out in our room rather than drink at the bar. Would probably stay again only because there is not much choice here! Will... More

Could have rated this hotel higher if the woman who greeted us at reception had not been so blatantly rude. We did not expect 5 star in the desert but having encountered the rude manner of the same person 6 weeks earlier took away any possible enjoyment of what could be an oasis in the desert. The rooms were just... More

A comfy clean bed for one night only, wouldn't want to stay longer. Extremely abrupt and unfriendly greeting with the same attitude across the bar. Considering it's remote location it was satisfactory and would have suppoeted the motel more by way of spending money in the bar, restaurant & breakfast, had the staff been at leadt pleadant or accommodating and...

We stayed here for 1 night on our trip over the Nullabor. We were in room 3, which I was informed was a refurbished room. We found it very comfortable and clean, especially after coming from Balladonia Roadhouse which was vile. Our bathroom was old but clean and bed was comfortable and room decor was pleasant. We had a small... More

This place was horrible. We arrived tired, like most people and went straight to the front desk and was checked in by a guy who clearly didnt want to be there, let alone welcome us. We were told that the restaurant would be opening at about 5 pm for the evening meal. We opened the door to a dirty looking... More

We stayed overnight at this motel on our return trip across Australia. The bathroom was filthy, the ventilation screen was so filthy that no air could pass through it, the shower was full of horrible mould, and the smoke detector was missing. The room itself was barely adequate. The price was an unbelievable $125/night and was easily the worst place... More

So you are not exactly spoiled with choice here - you are in the middle of nowhere and I'm reliably informed that Border Village is way-worse. I could forgive most of the things that made this place unpleasant but the saggy-wrapped-in-plastic matress: sorry, no can do. For $70 you can't really complain, but what they lose in swings they gain... More

Reasonable motel room with a squint view of the sea. Lovely gardens, surprise in the middle of the deert to see fish ponds. Pool empty. Restaurant excellent, staff friendly and charming - flower on the table for my wife because it was Valentines day. We would go back.

The roadhouse budget rooms are $70 and provide a bed and a towel but nothing else- no ensuite, no kettle, no fridge, no TV. The shower block is clean but costs another $1 for 5 mins of hot water. The BBQ area smelled bad & looked gross. Best to order a steak sandwich at the bar which was great value... More
