This property was in a great location, with close proximity to the beach, but also walking distance to town for dinner.
The room was comfortable for our family, and perfect for our short stay.

It was Great that we received a free upgrade to have a room with a view of the Bay and the Big Wheel. The Bed was comfortable and Clean but the motel room needs to abit off attention to freshen it up as well as some maintenance. But we would stay there again for price and location.

Whilst the location was good the property was very noisy all night.
The property was advertised with Foxtel which didn’t work in our room.
It was also quiet expensive for what it was

Only good thing we liked was that it was close to the waterfront for walking to enjoy the foreshore. Great for walking to the beach. The amenities in the room were very below standard. There was no plug in the bathroom basin and not enough crockery or cutlery for 2 of us. No bowl for dessert or cereal. Very poor standards here.
