Room was clean, easy check in process and staff were friendly. Only downside was that it was a little bit out of town so not in walking distance to anything, you need to drive to get to cafes and the main town.

Lovely motel for our overnight stop over in Port Macquarie onroute to Sydney. Not too far off the main highway, so we didn't need to go all the way into town, with The Settlement shopping centre close by for a few groceries. The room had everything we needed. Very comfortable room.
