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.

Thank you for your Kind Feedback Regarding the Parking that , I do not recall this , unless you did not have a vehicle , we are in our right to accommodate this space , it also allows people to be aware that this Room is occupied , We apply this on arrival.Thank you Annie
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 were very obliging and friendly. We had a lovely newly renovated room.
Did not have a toaster or knives and forks. Had a tea towel but no dishwashing liquid. Just bare minimum kitchenware but otherwise definitely would recommend.

Easy booking process. Friendly and helpful staff, we got in late that evening and were provided with fresh milk and cookies. A nice touch.
Well kept, tidy and clean rooms with comfortable beds. Will stay again.
Only slight down side as not dog friendly.

Large clean room and bathroom. Staff always helpful.
Parking larger vehicles requires some patience and persistence. Supermarket, restaurants/takeaway and the beach within walking distance. Some bus routes nearby.

Thank you so much Jay for sharing your experience staying with us. We are glad you had a great stay and would love to let you know we are starting a round of renovations through the rooms. Looking forward to seeing you again on our lovely beaches. Kind regards
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.

Thank you Kay for sharing your experience with us and the kind and detailed review. Sorry for the disturbing guest next door. We didn't know about that or we would have advised them to keep quiet. Looking forward to seeing you again. Kind regards
Great hospitality. We've been greeted with a great smile and fresh milk and bikkies to go with coffee. Every amenity was functional and in good condition.
We'll be back :)

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.
