Over priced for a small room. The amount of dust on the blinds was awful. Access from road was terrible. Noisy from other guests and road noise.

The room was good and very clean. Fits up to 4 people. Kids loved the bunk beds. A few minutes drive to the shops and beach. Unfortunately, service was terrible. The landline number was disconnected and they didnt answer mobile or messages. We were charged $80 for a late check in fee even though it says we need to contact them to make an arrangement after 8 but of course they didnt answer or call back. When we showed them we had contacted them earlier in the day the man literally said 'i dont care'. This was after a very long drive.

Disliked: Staff & service
Booked this room for one of our truck drivers traveling from ACT, he arrived at approx. 8:30pm. We were charged an extra $30 for "late check in" and by late check in I mean the rude guy at the desk had to text him the key code to enter his room, rather than tell him in person. Absolutely ridiculous. Maybe think about texting the late check ins their code before you leave work if you're going to charge people $30 for an sms. No where on Wotif or the Koala Tree website does it say anything about a late check in fee. Will never stay here again and tell everyone who will listen this story.

Expensive. NOT 4 star. Manager was incredibly rude. My wife and I were so upset by the argument with the manager that we couldn't sleep. $25 late check in fee. $30 fee for changing the booking. Total for 1 night nearly $300. Renovations actually going on during our stay. Garden messy. Retaining wall falling down. No designated parking. This is an old motel that needs updating. Facilities are basic, 3 star max. Fridge was not working. It is hard to see how they are still on business. Do not stay here.

DON'T STAY AT THIS MOTEL. THEY CHARGE A $200.00 SECURITY DEPOSIT ON TOP OF THE MOTEL CHARGE!!!! THE ROOM CHARGE ADVERTISED IS NOT THE END PAYMENT. IT IS $70 MORE. IT IS A RABBIT WARREN TO GET INTO AND PARK. THEY ARE RENOVATING AND THE FITTINGS ARE WEAK AND PRECOCIOUS BUT NOT FUNCTIONAL THE MIRROR IN THE BATHROOM WAS HUGE AND HEAVY AND JUST HANGING READY TO FALL!!!! WORST OF ALL THEY CHARGE A $200.00 SECURITY DEPOSIT AND DON'T TELL YOU BUT THEY REFUNDED IN 5 WORKING DAYS. DON'T STAY AT THIS MOTEL, MANY GREAT MOTELS IN PORT MACQUARIE. .
