I wasn’t aware but a couple hours after I checked in my card was charged a security deposit of $100, just annoying if wasn’t prepared for it , also rooms pretty tight on size.

Perfect
Pros:

So convenient for us to stay here , the room was lovely with all amenities we could want. We had our evening meal at the restaurant and I have to say the chef cooked our steak to perfection. It was the tenderest steak we’ve ever eaten. Well done

Excellent
Pros:

A highly recommended budget option in Whyalla if you want clean, newly renovated rooms at a good price and don’t mind a smaller space. Perfect for travellers passing through, work stays, or short breaks — with pubs and dining just downstairs.

Cons:

Cozy rooms, great location.
Pros:

Facilities are great, a little small but very nicely set out and cozy

Cons:

Dinner in the restaurant was a little bit of a let down, I have stayed and eaten here before but my meal was undercooked and very small this time. It was disappointing.

we stayed at Eyre Hotel some years ago - but that night we had a band playing right under our room
Pros:

Having a meal at our place of accomodation was great - also able to gain coffee/ drink early in the morning was wonderful

Cons:

The loud machine ( like fridge/ other machinery) noise during the night - broken sleep - my husband got up and put tissues in his ears. very loud in our room - room 103
