We didn't actually stay at this hotel. We arrived in Adelaide from Sydney about 7 pm. Had dinner with friends and then went to check in. No go. Nobody was at the desk. I mean, it wasn't late at night. So I check the check-in instructions, and it says check-in ends at 6 pm. 6 pm! Who shuts down check-in at 6 pm. And it's a pub, so people are around there working. We had to go find another hotel, so that's where we stayed. If you choose to stay at your hotel, make sure you get there early.

Our third time staying at Mawson Lakes Hotel and we stayed over in the Central Apartments in a 2 bedroom. Rooms seemed to have been slightly upgraded since we were there last year; particularly new carpet. Room was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for the week stay. Check in was quick and easy and parking was not a problem. Only hiccup we had was that when we arrived the 'main' bedroom was two singles and the second bedroom was a double but we fixed that ourselves but had to specify with housekeeping on the third day that we'd like king specific linen. We also had trouble understanding how to cast to the TV but weren't in the room enough for it to be a problem, or for us to bother contacting reception for assistance. Highly recommend and will be back when needed.

Staff fine, helpful. The current bed size makes the room feel cramped. Physical space makes difficult to move freely. I placed pillows at each corner to prevent hitting myself after a mishap x1 with a small laceration, bone bruise. I treated self well. Would have been good to access U tube etc. Other accommodation sites have a simple process. Instructions were difficult 4 me 2 understand so reading a book was a bonus. Free parking great 👍 Thankyou

The overall room was nice however there should be a notice for having one sofa bed instead of a proper bed, especially for travelling families. Additionally, there was a lot of dust and dirt in the washing machine, so it needed to be cleaned before it was usable.
