Good facility overall. Suited my needs
The current renovations caused some minor problems as I moved my car out of the motel very early in the morning to avoid being hemmed it by workmen's cars and trucks that came to do their necessary construction work. I will have no hesitation using the motel again once all that is finished

Purchased breakfast packs from reception, met our needs. Motel close to town, parking at the room. Reasonably quiet location off main road. Reception and other staff friendly and helpful. Compared to some other motels this one was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Overall a pleasant stay and will use again.
Layout of room had2 seater lounge located in a position not facing tv so had to recline on bed if viewing it a minor issue as not spending much time in the room

I especially liked the kitchenette, fully equipped, clean and organised. The bed was comfortable, though I thought the pillows and decorative cushion could be updated in style. I also liked that the establishment was set back from the busy road, and that the room was quiet and peaceful. Thank you.
My shower fitting was a bit wonky. It squeaked and groaned as I moved it into place. The water pressure was not perfect. Perhaps the fitting needs to be updated.

Friendly staff. Very clean and comfortable. Good location.
We were in a room which had the laundry facilities outside. People washing/drying clothes at 11pm and again at 6.45am. Not the motels fault though just inconsiderate people. Maybe put time restrictions on laundry use.

Tidy room, comfy beds & friendly staff. Undergoing exterior Reno's at the moment. We'll be back next time we stay in the area to see what changes they've made. 😊
Just needs easy access to a streaming service like Netflix or Stan. 🥰

Room is clean and tidy. Nice space for the family of four. would like to come back again in the future. Staff is friendly and helpful. Location is very good with near by Coles and the cafe with beach view.
frankly speaking that I did found a small dead bug behind the soap container. if someone is smoking outside, the smell would come to inside the room even the door and windows are all closed.

This was our second stay at the Catalina Motel Lake Macquarie, and we were just as happy this time as last. Our room was very comfortable, clean and had all the facilities we needed for our one night stay. On both occasions, the staff were friendly and helpful.

The Motel is located very close to the main street, making it extremely convenient for dining, shopping, and visiting the beach. The.staff were very friendly,and the room was clean and tidy.
My room was near the laundry room, which made it a bit noisy at times.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay in this hidden gem! Location was great, close to the little town and shops in Toronto. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. We would actually stay again when we pass through.
Nothing.
