Silver Haven Motel is in a good location and very easy to locate. It was an Easter trip with a lot of tourists in town. The motel is single story with dedicated parking making access to the rooms easy. Due to our later time of arrival, reception was closed but key arrangements had been communicated well prior to our arrival via sms. Room was of a medium size with most basic essentials supplied. It was clean and comfortable. The lighting in the room was very basic, one ceiling lamp and one bed side table lamp. In a digital age where travelers now have lap tops, phone chargers and other devices, the small round table made usage very awkard when there are more than one traveler. Minimal power points were available. The bed was comfortable, the shower good strength and consistent supply of hot water. The motel’s restaurant was closed and hence was a good reason to explore Broken Hill for other places to eat or obtain take away. We did not use the Wifi as we utilize hotspotting through mobile phones. There is a laundry on site. During our three night stay, we did not see any staff at all. As a base for activities around Broken Hill and surrounds, the motel was good. Almost on the corner of the road to Menindie and on Argent Street, the location was good. Sometimes we hear the road transport on Argent St and the trains on the railway behind but it was not disruptive. By what we experienced, it is a good place to stay for reasonable costs and location. However, the property at the time of our stay showed that it needed some TLC to bring it back to a better standard.
