"Lovely ladies run this place, very helpful and generous with the little packs of bikkies! Salt water pool, though small, was enough to cool off in on a hot day. However the mattress was way too firm for me so I didn't sleep, but my husband had no such complaints. The sofa was too low and uncomfortable to sit on too. There were no light blocking curtains or blinds so too much light coming into the room at night. Not much sound dampening either so noisy neighbours can be heard. However, we've stayed a couple of times now while visiting relatives and would do so again. I just take an eye mask, earplugs and mattress topper. Why? Because you get what you pay for and for budget motels, it's pretty good.
It's only a short drive into town for good food, it's close to the hospital and to my relatives. The cheapest petrol in town is a block away, and it's close to the highway without going through town, so if you're exploring the coast you've got a good start. A couple of rooms I think have flat doorways from the parking space, for mobility access. No views to speak of. No breakfast but kitchenette if needed. Go to cafe evolve or the red cafe for breakfast and the pearl Chinese restaurant for dinner - they also do excellent fish and chips and other Aussie meals. So this place has all you need. Definitely give it a try."
