Econo Lodge Karratha

Everything was good. Staff was friendly. Would be better if there were many more faciilities available for guests such as swimming pool & gymnasium.

easy to find ,road signs guide you from bayview road ,quiet place ,not expensive,friendly staff

The basic room is quite small and quite dark, as there is just a small window. The beds were good. We got lots of towels and there was a Nespresso coffee machine, although ours was not working properly. Owner/manager was very helpful. The rooms have sitting area, but there is a courtyard BBQ sitting area which can be used. We used this to enjoy our meal and breakfast. Unfortunately is that this can be used by smoking quests as well. That is actually the only negative comment I have. We stayed there twice during our trip in WA. The first time two nights and we booked after this stay for one more night on the way back. Good value for money.

A little bit out of town which is why I hadn’t stayed here before. On arrival my first thought was “mining camp” with a bunch of transportables surrounding a rectangular courtyard. I was waiting for a bus load of smokers in hiviz to crowd the courtyard but it didn’t happen. It was actually very quiet and relaxing and I did enjoy it. Rooms are nice and spacious with fridge, microwave, kettle and some plates/ cutlery. Aircon was cold and quiet and the room was very dark if you wanted it to be. The only thing I’d improve would be the cleanliness of the shower… it was a little average. The closest place I could find for a beer was 2.5kms away so you’d need a taxi or a good pair of walking shoes to hit the bar. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the price was “fair for Karratha.”
