Convenient, clean, no frills.
Clean and convenient. Absolutely no friendliness, at check in they couldn’t be rid of us fast enough and no access to speak or find anyone again. I was confused about people’s comments about breakfast when there was no food outside the minibar available at this premise. Very good eatery next door.

Great location. Easy walking to many convenience stores and fast food outlets. Walls are a bit thin and a sliding door was pretty ordinary, but despite this would definitely stay at this location again!

The motel is conveniently located and close to the Pacific Highway. An old style motel that's clean and affordable with all the facilities you could want.

Adequate for 1 nights accommodation - small room and bathroom, beds were quite hard but the shower was great.
pizza/takeaway shop next door handy for late arrival and IGA across the road was super helpful and open early on a Sunday morning.
Extremely small town with nowhere to get coffee Sunday morning or have breakfast out so the IGA was good.

Clean, modern, well appointed small room
While we had a modern, clean, well maintained and appointed room, it was not the size of a Deluxe Queen Room that we had booked and as appeared in the pictures: we had a small room only the width of the bed and bedside tables - no couch - and a small fold-up table with 2 chairs instead of a free standing table. No room for 2 suitcases - we left one in the car. Apart from that, it was a nice room with efficient airconditioning

I stopped while traveling from the Gold Coast to Sydney. It felt safe as a female travelling alone. I checked in 8:15pm which worked well. The room was clean and comfortable and had everything I needed. It was nice and quiet. I had a lovely peaceful walk in the morning before heading off on the rest of my journey.

While the property is not new, a successful effort has been made to maintain its condition. The rooms are clean and about as comfortable as you can get in a motel. There is pretty much everything you need except a dinner plate and eating irons. The fish n chip shop nearby is great and the RSL very close serves a good chinese meal. Will stay there again.

Old motel, needs a lot of work especially on the plumbing so that you don’t hear the water pressure coming through the pipes when someone in the next room is showing. Staff were nice and room was clean

Fast and efficient service provided. Clean establishment which it would appear is going through some modernizations, e.g. bathrooms appear to have recently been updated and which is favourable. Located in a wonderful picturesque area. View from the rear of the room left a lot to be desired though, unkept, overgrown area.

Considerably small room and even smaller bathroom. The bathroom had a constant foul smell and the door to the bathroom kept coming off when sliding to close.
Overall a good property but could use some TLC from the management to enhance the guest experience.

Clean, tidy, affordable but disappointing
Room very presentable, clean and tidy. Unfortunately the bathroom was very small. Layout was awkward. The vanity between shower and toilet left no room to move and dress with door closed. Amateur repairs and tiling was very obvious. Shower a good size. A smaller vanity would allow more space. One light in main room not working. Reception unattened on check-in and checkout with notes attached to inside door "Back in 10 mins" or to "See cleaner" who couldn't be found. It felt unwelcoming and confusing to guests.
