Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The basic room is quite small and quite dark, as there is just a small window. The beds were good. We got lots of towels and there was a Nespresso coffee machine, although ours was not working properly. Owner/manager was very helpful. The rooms have sitting area, but there is a courtyard BBQ sitting area which can be used. We used this to enjoy our meal and breakfast. Unfortunately is that this can be used by smoking quests as well. That is actually the only negative comment I have. We stayed there twice during our trip in WA. The first time two nights and we booked after this stay for one more night on the way back. Good value for money.

A little bit out of town which is why I hadn’t stayed here before. On arrival my first thought was “mining camp” with a bunch of transportables surrounding a rectangular courtyard. I was waiting for a bus load of smokers in hiviz to crowd the courtyard but it didn’t happen. It was actually very quiet and relaxing and I did enjoy it. Rooms are nice and spacious with fridge, microwave, kettle and some plates/ cutlery. Aircon was cold and quiet and the room was very dark if you wanted it to be. The only thing I’d improve would be the cleanliness of the shower… it was a little average. The closest place I could find for a beer was 2.5kms away so you’d need a taxi or a good pair of walking shoes to hit the bar. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the price was “fair for Karratha.”

As a single Senior on the road the cost and room were comfortable. The Manager very pleasant and helpful. Other patrons were a bit loud outside my room but quietened down at 9pm. Hardly slept as the air con had an audible chatter. Tried ear plugs but didn't work.

Considering the price of accommodation in Karratha, this is good value for money. Only downside is that it's a bit far to walk to restaurants etc if you don't have a car. Staff were welcoming and friendly at check in, room was clean, bed was comfortable and had no issues with my stay. Would stay again.

We found a deal for 107 bucks a a night. Arrived late and the front of desk was super accommodating of our arrival time. The room was perfect for the price. It’s great if your heading to an event at the RSL. Lots of parking. Like an old donga inside but does the job.
