It's absurdly difficult to find a decent motel in Adelaide (most are mired in the 2000s), but this one makes a reasonable fist of the new century, helped along by new bathrooms and vivid Aboriginal art. It's smallish, friendly, affordable and in a beaut location – handy for forays north to the Barossa, Clare, Flinders etc. Apartments also available.
