Hotels Near Eight Mile Creek Beach in Whyalla

Lovely greeting when we checked in. We stayed in a Delux Family Room which has 2 separate bedrooms and large lounge/dining/kitchen area with washer/drier in bathroom. Kitchen though only has a microwave and frypan, with pots and pans in the drawers, but no stove or oven to use them. Overall a good nights stay with comfortable beds.

The 2 bedroom cabin I booked was very new and clean. The kitchen had a stove, microwave oven, refridgerator and all cookinv and cleaning utensils. The beds were large and comfortable but blankets provided were not very warm for winter weather. We left the air conditioner on all night. The bathroom was designed for disabled access but there were no towel racks or hooks for hanging clothes. Location was on the main highway and a few minutes drive from a large shopping centre. Reception was only open during the day so make sure to contact them in advance if you plan to arrive at night. 我预订的两卧室小屋非常新，很干净。厨房里有炉灶、微波炉、冰箱以及所有的炊具和清洁用具。床很大很舒适，但提供的毯子在冬天天气不是很暖和。我们整晚都开着空调。浴室是为残疾人设计的，但没有毛巾架或挂衣服的挂钩。位置在主干道上，离一个大型购物中心只有几分钟车程。前台仅在白天开放，因此如果您计划在晚上抵达，请务必提前与他们联系。

staff are amazing, especially the breakfast staff. So polite and helpful. Rooms are cleaned every day. Microwave and bar fridge in room, great shower great water pressure, air con/heater works great, small table with 2 seats also in room a double couch. Room service available, and staff who deliver are friendly. I felt safe as a single female staying here ,parking in sight from your room, shopping center within a 1 minute walk from here, taxis are available just outside the venue. Would defiantly recommend staying here.

Upon arrival we discover that the motel has a faceless and remote checkin. You enter the unmanned reception area to come face to face with a person in another country on a video screen, looking surprised at our arrival. No hotel staff to be seen. An immediate worry. She assumed that a text message sent whilst we were driving (at this point unopened as it resembled spam) was enough explanation to get us settled into our room. She kindly spat out of a copier (luckily it had paper) the information we required for our stay. As we made our way up the stairs to our room, there was an occupational health and safety issue that required immediate attention. I went back into robot land to report the issue. She explained that there will not be anyone on site until the next day and that nothing could be done! I remedied the situation myself to save the owners from a possible lawsuit. Once we navigated our way inside the unit, it was small and functional but unclean, with former dispensers still installed but since abolished, and dirty soft furnishings. To their credit there was adequate supply of extras in the fridge and kitchen and bathroom, and a lovely new floating floorboard in the main room. We had had a huge day driving and a nine hour drive the next day. Our night was a disaster - the neighbouring customer of our room played loud music and then tv, interspersed with loud bouts of prolonged coughing throughout the entire evening. The motel is on a noisy main road as well. Other accomodation we have stayed in gives one an opportunity to voice a complaint that will be quickly addressed because the owners ARE ON SITE! In this location, we had no one to discuss issues with, give local advice/directions/info. Just a cold wooden person with no interest in your well being, on the other side of the world. I guess this is what budget motel is - pay peanuts, get monkeys.

A large motel with various blocks of rooms with lots of space around them. There was a little bbq area not far from our room. Nice and quiet in regards to traffic which is what we wanted. The room was large and comfortable and suited us well. There is a nice big restaurant on site although we didn't try it - will next time. A short drive to shops etc.

Wasn’t expecting too much for Port Augusta though was pleasantly surprised staying here overnight. A hotel doesn’t have to be 5 star to be enjoyable and comfortable. Sometimes it’s the little things that sets it apart . This is a central hotel on the main highway but there is very little road noise when inside the room. It’s very neat, tidy, and clean. Reception was efficient, helpful and friendly. The pictures online make it look dated. It’s not new, but it has been well maintained. What I noticed was that management have gone above and beyond so many other hotels even up to 5 star level, by implementing small improvements that make a difference. Might not be important to some but I valued the room dimmer light switches and the power points with inbuilt usb charging. So good to be able to turn on a dimmed light at night. Love how the block out curtains, actually close properly. Nice features that are rare. The complimentary continental breakfast was thoughtful. Selections are offered when you check in and can be taken back to your room to enjoy in the morning. Toast and cereal, more than adequate. Huge comfortable bed and nice flowing shower. No restaurant but next door is a good take out and across the road a Foodland. Phoning direct may well get you a better price than booking online. Would definitely stay again.
