Average room, but good location
Pros:

Close location

Cons:

I’ve stayed here before as it’s my hometown, but since coming back for a holiday it didn’t feel clean and the room lacked decor and care - it felt so plain. There was black mould on the shower floor and near the door, and the carpet was stained. The room was very average for the price.
Staff at the counter were lovely though :)

comfy
Pros:

easy check in, roomy hotel venue and good location

Cons:

I would like to have been offered the opportunity to upgrade to a sea facing room if one was available.
I wanted to see tuna on the menu as Port Lincoln is famous for this fish.

Pros:

The room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable however a bit dated. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Cons:

There were no plugs by the bed. In the bathroom the shower head was completely fixed to the wall, you couldn’t even tilt it which makes showering without washing your hair hard. The food was average.

Cons:

We did the steak night in Sharky's Restaurant. We like well done steak but one was very hard to chew and the other was undercooked (still just edible for one of us)
