nice hotel
The hotel was value for money and quite comfortable- although with no aircon (there was a fan) the windows needed to be open to cool it down a bit on warmer days. There were some friendly little beetles that took advantage of this and needed to be relocated outside.

Good value for money.
Older style motel in a reasonable location. Walking distance to the beach, local RSA, Thai restaurant and large New world store across the road. Motel unit was large (Queen bed in main area and 2 singles in a separate bedroom). Kitchenette was good and nice patio area outside. Beds a bit soft and uncomfortable and curtains in bedroom too short- lot of light from dawn. Good parking outside room. Got used to the trains nearby as stayed for 4 nights. Owners very nice. Really good value for money

We found the property to be convenient to our needs, easy walking distance to Supermarket, and the RSA restaurant. Very clean, a nice quiet area at the rear of the property for a quiet drink. No noise from our neighbours. Easy parking of our vehicle.
