Located right across the road from Forster’s main beach and only a 5 min walk to the shopping mall. Rooms were good quality and we enjoyed having a balcony with a view of the ocean. Bathroom is very small and had no counter space, but for a short stay this was ok. Undercover parking & a lift was very convenient. Lots of cafes & restaurants within easy walking distance.

Good location and nice views of beach. Hotel itself and the room was very tired, old and dusty. For the price, we expected better.
