Very dated and unmaintained. Half of the lights didn’t work. But you get what you pay for I guess
Room without toiletries, shower screen hanging, chair fabric filthy, all fittings tired, even 2 tvs sitting there. Rubbish strewn outside, car park a lake following rain. Messy inside and out. Lazy attitude by staff obviously working on a different planet. Stay elsewhere. Even $10.00 for a beer.
For the sake of a scrub of the shower and bathroom, this stay could have been quite acceptable.

Needed room upgrade on arrival photos on website misleading especially for the hotel rooms. Their motel rooms were way better. Air-conditioned. Roomy. Hotel room only had room for bed and very hot no air con or open windows.
Very disappointed in our night here. Difficulty parking as cars haphazard in park. Lack of lighting at entrance was unsafe. Bathroom was dated & filthy. Cupboards with broken sharp handles & water damaged timber. Kitchen lacking crockery & utensils. Fridge very unstable. Bedding uncomfortable & although sheets appeared clean, hairs in the bed!! Ceiling water damaged looked totally unsafe. Room full of dead & live flies & mosquitoes. Definitely a disappointing experience.
Our first and last stay there. The room smelled like sewerage because of the bathroom drain. The smell lingered in the room at barely acceptable levels but was gag inducing in the bathroom itself. The beds were uncomfortable but clean. The shower layout means the bathroom floods but it was clean. It’s way too overpriced for what you have to put up with, even for budget motel standards.

While quite a dated unit, it was clean and the bed was fine to sleep in. Could have done with extra pillows as those on the bed were very flat.
Good basic accommodation. Convenient location for an overnight stay.

Great location and people
We stayed at the Hawker Hotel Motel while visiting the Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park. The hotel is a bit rustic, but a great location. The staff of the hotel/bar/restaurant, especially Mike, was top-notch. We had a great meal at the restaurant and chat with Mike. Highly recommended!

Old place with a outback charm and the only pub in town. Good experience on the way to Flinders Ranges!
Could not stay here Due to the mix up with the room asked for not being available and an alternative roo offered not fit for human habitation. . The room offered had urine and human waist stains on floor the air cond with no front on it. There was mould on the ceiling broken furniture including damage to the bed frame. Their was a pungent overbearing smell. The communal bathroom is shared with the pub patrons. The manager mr Singh apologised and said he would refund the room however he claimed Expedia had our money and were refusing to let him refund the amount. I contacted the site awaiting confirmation of a refund. I have used this site extensively over the years never have I had to refuse a room based on its habitable state. Ended up driving an hour to another city and rebooking their for the same night.
