Disliked: Amenities
Convenient location near main beach and short walk to Forster main shops . Stayed in executive room which felt very dated . No power points next to bed sides which was annoying . Toilet gave a loud bang whenever the cistern refilled and shower too roughly 5 minutes to start getting warm . Effectively no noise insulation in room as door had a large gap at bottom , any time of night you could hear people walking outside or banging their own doors . Cost of stay was low however

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The property is very conveniently located at the heart of Forster with the food precincts and beaches located in walking distance. The rooms decent in size and is well lit. Parking lot is cramped, you’ll need good driving skills to park and take your car out. Overall a great choice for the price we paid.

This property advertised daily housekeeping which is not correct, they need better blinds to keep the lights out from the service station. Tiles in the shower are all cracked and mouldy shower screen.
