Property is in a good location to town and next to the Country Club. Received advice about the restuarant before arrival only to find out it was in fact closed the duration of the long weekend. No rooms are serviced during this period either. Shower gel was empty in the shower and the pump machines are not very user friendly. Overall just a standard Motor Inn for a small town nothing special at all.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
A little dated, but clean and comfortable, with friendly staff and in a great position. The central position of the pool is nice, but the fact it was only open until 7pm (before sunset during summer) seemed a little silly. Probably a little overpriced for what you get, but overall a decent place to stay.

Very friendly owners who have provided things that travellers need. Kitchenette facilities appreciated. Rooms have been modernised. Undercover parking. Would recommend as preferred accommodation for South West Rocks.
