Excellent!
Pros:

Newly refurbished - fresh, clean, contemporary … and the bed was so incredibly comfortable. I had the best night’s sleep. I’d definitely stay there again.

Cons:

They don’t serve breakfast … but Gawler is a small place and there are plenty of options nearby.

Pros:

The hotel is centrally located, with good parking at the rear of the hotel. The staff were all friendly and very helpful, for example we were allowed an early check in to enable us to go leave our bags, which was much appreciated.

Room had everything we needed and eateries close by were great.
Pros:

The location was perfect as we had come over for the Gather Round and other friends were staying in the district so, was easy to catch up. Facilities were very good. Love being able to do some washing etc.
Having Big W and Woolies close by was fab.
Can't really fault the place. Will definitely stay again.

Cons:

Maybe have another washing machine and dryer.....some people didn't take notice of the *time* instructions for cycle.... so, I changed it. :)
