An adequate option when staying around Glenelg

We stayed at the Glenelg Motor Inn over the weekend as we were in Adelaide for a short trip to see friends and family. The Glenelg Motor Inn was sufficient in respect to facilities, however the Motel is showing its age in terms of infrastructure and decor. Setting aside the age of fixings and decor, it is well located in terms of access to nearby amenities and has access from the front and rear of the property. Staff were friendly and helpful during interactions.

We stayed in your hotel for 3 nights. However, not once did the cleaner come, did not take out the garbage, or asked "Do you need anything?"
