Amanda, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Tired old motel, great views, furniture stained,.

Reception closed middle of the day, efficient helpful once open. Adequate, basic motel room. Basic comfort, 70s vibe, decor old. View fantastic. Building tired, face brick internally, needs more love and nurturing.

Claude, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It's convenient for shop, eat and the view of ocean is fantastic. But it's far from the interesting places.
Meng, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location with views across the bay. Restaurant does not operate anymore. Place needs money spent on maintenance eg door chain broken, shower holder broken, mattress was OK but no pillow top so hard on the hips after a nights sleep, rooms not very sound proof
Michael, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I was grateful the property was as stated, not either under or over-stated. Were happy to honour our privacy giving us a choice of whether our room was cleaned or not. We were met by a pleasant host, who took the time to show us around. The only thing I would suggest was having screens fixed on the balcony door so the glass door could be left open to enjoy the breeze without the bugs.
Julie, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was fairly fine considering the price and very clean. Bathroom was very old and definitely needs updating.

Hotel under major reno's/modification. Should be much improved when completed.
Douglas, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The external and internal doors rattled all night from wind. Had to use a towel and suitcase to stop noise. Could hear other guests outside. Pillows were very flat and uncomfortable.
Angelene, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

No one at reception even during reception hours. Called the phone number but no answer, left a voicemail but no call back. Sat in my car had to wait to check in. Very basic amenities and old fashioned interior. Could hear water running, the tv and phone ringing in the room next door. Much better accomodation in Kingscote than this

KI Seaside Inn

The location was convenient in Kingscote, not far from the pub and Italian restaurant in town (drive). The room was fine with long bench for things like using your laptop. Car parking out the back with plenty of room but no direct access to the room so a bit of to and fro to the car/room, not a major issue. The TV wasn't working and we were unable to find someone to report to until the afternoon of day 2, which was Sun. (We could have phoned). The staff member (owner?) was helpful and tried a few things to no avail but a technician couldn't be organised until the Monday (understandably). The TV was replaced. We were offered a rebate, which would have been great as a compensation for not having the TV until the last night of three nights but it was never processed. (It's now 10 days later.) Insufficient power points in the room with no power points near the bed for things like a CPAP if you need one of those. The seaview is lovely but out the front of the room there is no separation from the other rooms, and we sadly had a very noisy group of people next to us who were outside with the noise coming very loudly into our room. The restaurant is not operating at the moment, despite being advertised. There is no cooking (not even a toaster), no net curtains, so the room is visible from the front if you don't draw the curtains, No facewashers. Overall fine but addressing a few minor things could easily turn the experience into a much better one. Nice walks/views across the road

Property's location was the only thing which was good, there was no staff or intercom service if you needed anything, due to some covid situation i was told the restaurant was closed which is understandable however one day after when a big group came the restaurant was opened again which I wasn't made aware and told that If i needed something I could get it , which was not very pleasing. Carpets on the floor was shredd to threads at multiple patches, rooms indoor was not the way it looked in the pictures. I wouldn't pay $150 a night just for a sea side view, room's condition or the room service was not up to expectations( rather no one ever came back and asked for any service needed except one receptionist who was kind when we reached there to provide us the keys and towels) I guess I was given the worst room based on the price paid

レセプションが対応できるチエックイン時間が18:30までなので注意が必要です。それ以降の時間になる場合はレセプションからの案内メールに従って入室できます。 部屋は広くてとても快適に過ごせました。 キングスコートの中心部から近いため夕飯も朝食も困りませんでした。
