The room was clean and pleasantly decorated. Close enough to walk to the beach or the nearby restaurants and cafes. The only problem was when some people staying there who were traveling with more than one vehicle used our parking spot outside our room for their second vehicle.

Was clean, beds were comfy, pool was great. The fish & chip shop up the street is excellent, huge portions! We stayed here & took our grandson to Aussie Zoo. Was nice to come back & jump in the pool. There was a microwave in our room but if you wanted cutlery & crockery you have to ask at the office. A lovely stay, thank you!

Hi Wendy Was lovely to meet you and happy you enjoyed your Holiday with your Grandson.Yes the purposes of asking for Crockery/Cutlery is because of Rooms not having Kitchens and this way we are aware of what Rooms have dishes , so we can let them know they they can be replaced for fresh ones.Thank you Annie

Staff are very nice. Rooms are clean and spacious. Although motel is on a corner of a busy road you don’t hear the traffic to much. Other people are more noisy. It’s close to the shops just a short walk away. Would stay again. The only thing I didn’t like was the discussing person who chose to sit outside his room and hock up phlegm for 30 mins and spit absolutely disgusting.

This is a nice motor hotel 4 blocks from the beach. It’s well kept and clean. The hosts are truly kind and welcoming. They even lent me a beach towel for a couple of days. There’s a grocery a half block away with homemade food selections for dinner. There are bus stops nearby. This is a perfect place to spend a few nights.
