One of the worst experiences we have had in accommadation. Extremely dirty - don't stop there - make sure you can get to the next stop for the night.

One of the better Roadhouses, food in the Restaurant was excellent, so much better than we ever expected, as it is in the middle of no-where we were slightly apprehensive, but the accomodation was very good and comfortable, we would certainly stop again.

Spent the night here was it was too late to push on to Fraser Range Station (another 90km west but apparently the best stopover on the Nullarbor). Campground was fine, it had some trees (which always make a place look a bit better!) and we watched a lovely sunset behind the trees. Can't tell what the bathrooms were really like,... More

We stayed last night at the Balladonia Roadhouse and I have say how impressed I was. We stayed in one of the new chalets and they were lovely. Its obviously an overnighter between Eucla and Norseman and we are so glad we didnt push on to Norseman as it was late and we were tired. The cafe has a real... More

Captive audience. Room expensive but the next option is quite a drive away (heading west). Friendly staff and good food in the hotel bar.

We stopped here overnight on our way over the nullabor. I was disgusted. We had a motel room. The linen on the bed had not been washed in a very long time and stank and was clearly filthy. On inspection on the pillows we found pubic hair and old stained dirty pillows. We luckily had bought our own linen along... More

This roadhouse towards the western end of the Nullarbor plain provides a clean comfortable airconditioned stopover for a reasonable price ($130 for standard room). It has a pool too and for $10 there is unlimited Internet access. You can see bits of Skylab in the free museum. Best roadhouse on the Nullarbor if you can avoid filling up with their... More

Very spartan but clean rooms. Fantastic atmosphere in the pub and restaurant, which also has a free museum displaying the chunks of SkyLab, the US space vehicle that crashed in Balladonia 30 years ago or so. Lots of fun.

We also travelled from Streaky Bay all the way across the Nullabor to spend the night here. My partner and I were pleasantly surprised with the quality of our room at the Balladonia Roadhouse. We stayed in a 'superior/deluxe' room with a queen bed. The room was very clean, with bar fridge and kettle, as well as brand new air... More

We had driven from Streaky Bay, SA (1100km) and needed a place to stop for the night. We were pleasantly surprised by this place. We checked into one of the newer 'deluxe' rooms and found it to be very comfortable for a nights stay. The bed was good and the room and bathroom were clean. In essence, simple but comfortable....
