Stay was average. Even the though it had blockout curtains light could still come in. There was dust underneath the bed and was not the most comfortable. Parking was great.

We took our two grandchildren for what we hoped would be a totally different, fun holiday. It exceeded our expectations. They never got tired of playing on the truck and dressing up, and we all loved the spa. Perfect for any family.

Invoices are not issued by the hotel, they are issued by Expedia/Wotif. We clearly explained to you several times that as you booked & paid through Expedia, Expedia process your booking and payment.

Very clean, excellent communication. We could have done without scaping the car on the protruding gate trying to get into the tiny car park or someone walking in to clean half an hour early. The first was disappointing and the second was strange because he would have seen the car there. I found the blind in lieu of the door or security gate disconcerting and I didn’t feel that safe there. The shower head also needs a mount that is higher than waist high. However, other than that, it is a really well run property and a lot of thought has gone into it.

Thank you for your review & comments regarding your stay. We appreciate your feedback. We were guided by your earlier advised departure time, and our sincerest apologies that the housekeepers arrived while you were still there. There are 3 carparks at the rear of the Fire Station Inn & the courtyard is accessed from the private security gated carpark. For future stays please utilise the other spaces should you choose to book a return stay in any of the 3 suites located in the Fire Station Inn. We hope to welcome you again soon,

Very nice place
Came down from Darwin looking for a nice place to relax for a couple of days, while I was in Adelaide. A perfect location, close to array of cafes and restaurants within walking distance. Having the court yard was a big plus. Very comfortable and the spa, just the best. I would definitely recommend. I'll be back for sure. Only downside for me was the firetruck room wasn't available for my dates, next time .

An Amazing Family Stay in a Truely Unique Hotel
The most fun I've had in a hotel, ever! We took our 2 year old and 6 month old daughter here and it was amazing. We had the fire engine suite. We arrived late at night and my whole family were amazed! We showered and woke up early to play on the huge 1940's engine. It was great. The room was rustic and roomy. It felt like a real fire station. The only thing we didn't think was great was that the price went up from 250 to 380 per night simply because we have 2 children. They sleep with us always and required nothing extra...

Hi John, so glad you enjoyed the Fire Engine Suite. For extra children & adults we do need to cover cleaning, towels, extra linen etc. (re the jump in rates, the rate you are quoting is for the Loggia Suite). we hope to see you again for another stay

One of a kind
The Fire Station Inn is one of a kind and definitely an experience - sleeping in a room with a fore engine and all decorated as an old fire station is great. Unfortunatelly, you can hear the noise from the people and car at the street and neighbors from the adjacent suite, and they can hear you! So not much privacy.
