Highly recommend! Very clean, friendly service. A lot of ‘little extras’ that add up to be exceptional! (Mints, breakfast items, extra pillows, message from the owners, etc.) Cleaning crew were awesome. Lots of other extras… laundry, games room, outside grill, and loved having coffee on your own private table and chairs just outside your room. Seriously, if your in this neighborhood you should definitely stay here. And… it’s very affordable!

We stayed at short notice and couldn't be happier with the on line booking process and follow up phone calls received from the property. An older style motel but that didn't detract from the cleanliness of our Queen room (2x Qu Beds) along with comfy mattresses, all the mod cons required for a comfortable stay. Undercover parking out the front of your room providing easy access for unloading suitcases etc. Quiet night's sleep even though the plane flight path appeared close by. Just a short drive to Tweed Heads central and our visit to Twin Towns Resort. Use motels frequently throughout our travels here and overseas and thoroughly recommend this motel. Would definitely stay again.

We checked in late afternoon for a single overnight stay before an early flight out of the GC. Check in was quick and easy. The room was clean & tidy. The room was simple but had everything we needed for our short stay. Beds & pillows were comfortable. The overhead plane noise was super loud but didn't go late so it didn't affect our sleep. There is nothing close by within walking distance, but a short drive to get food (7-10 mins). Would recommend and would stay again for the overnight/early checkout for early flight.

Although an older property, cleanliness and attention to detail are second to none. Renovated super clean bathrooms. A no brainer if needing to catch an early/late connecting flight from Gold Coast airport. Only negative is the nasty cool white lighting (at least in our unit).. please consider changing to warm white bulbs!

Room is incredibly clean and nice for a basic motel room. The only reason this review isn’t glowing is the other guests at the motel who give the impression are permanent residents at the motel. They were making noise until late and you could hear everything. Website states soundproof rooms but the door is flimsy so you can hear any guests walking past your room. I’d stay here again in the hopes that those that live there have maybe moved on.

Can’t fault it. Cozy little room with a comfortable bed. It’s ran by the owners and it shows, they were absolutely lovely and go above and beyond to make sure you have a great stay. Bring some earplugs if you’re a light sleeper, Coolangatta airport is nearby and can be a bit noisy, but the airport has a curfew between 11am and 6am so it’s not too bad

Could not recommend this place any higher! We had a very brief stay, checked in late and left early even though we were offered a complimentary late check out. The staff communicated well and made a late self check in very easy. Upon entering our room the staff had already made the room comfortable for us by turning our aircon on and leaving us all little treats. The little gestures within the room were second to none. Personal recommendations on where to eat were written down for us, pillow options were available and options to make the stay for our kids comfortable were accessible. Very impressed for just a hotel we picked for a quick pitstop.
