Nice place to stay for overnight stop. Ground floor unit requested and provided. Comfortable bed, table and chairs a bonus. Shower water temperature extremely difficult to manage.

Very nice
We were very impressed as the manager rang us to ask when we would be arriving and gave us the choice of an upstairs or down stairs room. I said we would be there in 5 minutes and he said we could book in early and that the rooms were ready and we had a look at the rooms and we picked the one we liked best. We had the upstairs room and had a nice view.

Liked: Staff & service
It was clean and well equipped. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom clean. There was just one problem: a foul stench when we entered the room. It was especially pronounced at the entrance. The door to our room as well as the next one were wide open in a clear attempt to air them. It seems that it was just those two rooms because our friends, staying a few doors down from us, didn't have the problem.

Good Accommodation
Checking in was easy. We had a balcony with a view over the water which was good. Room was clean. Communal kitchen with cooking pans etc. Pool looked clean but weather was too cold for us to use.

The motel is quite basic and rather dated and a long way from eateries and the CBD though a supermarket is 5 mins away on foot. No breakfast but rooms had microwaves and 'fridges. Comfortable and clean.
