Plenty of space and all the amenities

We often have to room share as we travel around for business and when you are spoilt with space and 2 queen beds in the room, there is nothing better.

A Giant Cuttlefish starting point

We were snorkeling with the Giant Cuttlefish early the next morning at Stony Point about 30 minutes from this hotel. Rather than make a long drive from Adelaide the day of the snorkel we decided to stay here. It was a great decision. We were really looking for an inexpensive place to crash but found this nice hotel near Whyalla amenities which more than suited our needs. Stay here when coming to Whyalla.

The apartment was excellent - a really nice place to stay. Check in was completely contactless. I didn't see any staff during my stay, but all went seamlessly, so no complaints there. The only real downside was that there is a long balcony shared between all the units and other occupants wandered along it and sat outside talking until late, which was a really annoying. It also meant I had to close my curtains on the balcony side (which let in most of the light) for privacy. Because of that, I probably wouldn't stay there again. It would be better for all if there was no access to the balcony for guests. If it wasn't for that, I would really recommend this property.

We had no hot water, so were not able to shower. We had to leave before 9am and reception was not open, so we rang later that day to let them know and to say that it was not good enough and a partial refund would be appreciated. The receptionist advised that management would get back to us. Waited a week, heard nothing.

I don't generally leave low rating reviews, but have been left no choice. It's been a couple of years since I have stayed at the comfort inn and it's fair to say their rooms are in much need of updating! There is wear and tear on the furniture, fridge, the beds, etc. There are dirty stains all over the carpet. The curtain rod is falling down and dirty hand prints on the walls. The office chair is visibly falling apart and the list goes on. The reason I've left my review so low is mostly because I opened up my towel in the morning after having a shower to discover what I can only explain as a fecal stain which is unacceptable! I also don't like the fact that we're expected to wash our dishes in a basin where facial hair is shaved, amongst other body parts and people are brushing their teeth in. Not to mention probably vomiting spitting and God knows what else. I'm not even sure if that's legal? Will I stay here again? No.

Great place to stay

Really nice place to stay. Only trouble we had was the sliding doors to the outside where pool was were very difficult to open, so we gave up and had to use the one in the kids room. The room was clean and tidy, had everything we needed, and the breakfast packs in the room were great.
