Motel Goolwa is in a good central location - close to restaurants and bars - and easily walkable to Goolwa wharf. The room was spacious and clean with good parking space. We enjoyed our breakfast at "Jack's place' (part of the motel) where we got a discount because we were staying there. Nice a friendly staff.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was great. Weird arrangement of the very small shower and toilet being either side of the shared kitchen/bathroom. Other than that it was roomy and comfortable. I accidentally left some drinks, bought as a gift. The cleaner came in as we were packing and we left him to it. Disappointed they didn't phone me and let me know l'd left it as l was nearby most of the day. Check in was easy, staff lovely and very friendly. Location is great and it was very quiet. Girls in the coffee shop next door were much more interested in their social life than serving. Coffee was great but unless you want to wait awhile maybe go elsewhere.
