Towels and sheets need to be replaced as shabby. Make sure you wash everything before you use it as not clean. Car park is secure which is important.

This property appears to be quite new. Car park felt as safe as possible, located in a central, gated car park requiring fob to both enter and exit. Nice vibe around the rooms. Room quite large with kitchenette - cooktop and microwave plus fortunate to have a washing machine. Easy to self-cater. Bed comfy and shower good. Small pool looked inviting.

Staff were very friendly but unfortunately the rooms weren't the best, management didn't want to know about problems and we were charged for extras even after i was told i could have the extras months before the visit without any mention of extra charges. They did give a discount on usual rate apparently but still not happy. There are limited places to stay in town so I'm guessing this is how they stay in business

The wifi never worked. We were so cold in the bedroom and there was no extra dunna in the cupboard. The coffee machine was broken, and overall the food was overprice for the quality.

Disappointed this time round
Lovely friendly receptionist. Disappointed to find our washing machine/dryer out of order despite paying extra for room. Had to use coins in general laundry and the clothes came out worse than when they went in. Usually we are more than happy with our stay at the Spinifex.

As much as covid is a problem I didnt expect to be "TOLD" to put a mask on..there was no pause as I came through the door I was immediately TOLD to put a mask on..all while there were at least 5 others at the bar unmasked..p.s.I am not adverse to wearing a mask but when you have your hands full of luggage its going to take a moment to put one on..oh..there's no internet unless your phone is the hotspot and you put it to the window to get reception..place is a little unfriendly
