This motel was clean with generally easy access. Helpful staff. A cafe adjacent to the motel. If they had stopped the rain it would have been excellent.

The room was clean and warm, and the beds were very comfortable. A peaceful and relaxing view from the balcony overlooking the golf course. Having the club right next door was a huge bonus! We were able to check in a little earlier and check out a bit later without any problems!
We will be back!

We stayed here for 3 nights after travelling down for a wedding. The staff are excellent, the hotel is clean and fresh, not dated and used feeling. We could walk to the town centre and to the nearby shopping centre easily. Our room was spacious and so was the bathroom and very clean. I found the bed too hard for my liking but I find this fairly often - perhaps a mattress topper offering would be good? It was a shame the restaurant was closed, it would make a great location for a bar, outdoor...

My room was really clean and comfy, had lovely décor - every detail was well presented, and the motel had great amenities for a very reasonable price. Unfortunately it was a little noisy from traffic noise and the light on outside my room all night was a tad annoying, but the owners did accommodate my request for a quiet room and were great hosts.

The hotel is well located - one could walk to a very good Indian restaurant for dinner and there were other choices as well as the hotel's own restaurant. It also backs onto a local park which was pleasant but please note that the local bird life likes the trees there. So you have some dawn singing if you don't keep the windows closed.
We were happily surprised when we arrived to find a microwave in the room as it had not been mentioned in the room details. It is a nice addition.

This is an older, solidly built 1970s motel which has been updated. Walls are solid brick between rooms so no noise transfers between rooms. Rooms are clean, decent size and have bathrooms that are also bigger than average. This was the 6th motel I stayed in along the NSW coast in 7 days travelling, and it compared favourably with the others. It was quiet at night, reasonably priced and walking distance (between 50 and 300 metres) to either a steak house, a Thai restaurant or a up market...

Very clean, thick walls so you aren't disturbed by other guests and large rooms. Could do with a new fridge though as it was very loud.
