What guests think

Many find it good value for short stays and appreciate the overall quiet. Parking outside rooms is straightforward, and access to a guest laundry is a plus. Expect a basic, roomy stay in an older motel.

Inside room was modern, clean and comfortable. Microwave, fridge and reverse cycle air cobditioner all worked well. Outside perhaps needs some maintenance, soecifically, it was raining quite a bit and there were leaks from gaps around the outside of the building, including at the front of the rooms, no great impact on my stay though, more of a appearance thing.

The size of the room was better than expected. Reasonably well equipped with a decent size refrigerator. The kitchenette had plenty of preparation space. The television was too small for the size of the bed sitting room. Insufficient clothes hangers for the cupboard. The wall between bathroom and bedroom appeared to have water damage. The parking needs to be made clearer- car space lines with room numbers to stop confusion.

Our room was super spacious and we could park right outside. We were within easy walking distance of everything we wanted to do. The one thing that I wasn't particularly happy with was the force of the water in the shower - not great! But thank you, it was pretty much what we wanted at that time.

Not sure where the reviews I have seen about the property being lovely come from because it is far from. The reason they don't take a security deposit is because there isn't anything you can do to the space that isn't already in a bad state of disrepair. Between the paint pealing off the wall and exposing the chipping wall to the frayed door the room needs an overhaul before anyone else stays there. The location is lovely, but not nearly as close to the beach as images will have you think. If you are driving a large truck or are traveling with a trailer don't stay there as the space is tight. Overall, everything about the room screamed, just go to sleep and morning will come soon enough so that you can check out.
