The rooms are older but functional. Nice soap dispensers but no shampoo. You can get adjoining rooms with an internal door, great for a family. There is no height restriction on the rear driveway, and plenty of on street parking for caravans. The staff were very helpful and accommodating.
Not so much "didn't like" as "doesn't have". Doesn't have onsite parking for longer vehicles (unless the car park is empty, which I doubt happens often! Doesn't have shampoo. Quite a small list and certainly not critical. It is a little walk to the beach, and when we were there there was a lot of seaweed. That said, there is a very nice jetty for fishing and jumping.

Location is great. Infront of beach. Park and playground across road. Pub behind and also foodland a short walk. We had interconnecting rooms which was great.
Doors to bathroom are slide and not greatest. Lighting a little dim at night. The beach is not one for swimming and had a bad smell to it when we were there. We had total of 3 rooms. 1 room was fully equipped with microwave and even plates and bowls for cereal. However other rooms didn't have that. Wifi didn't work tried on multiple devices. Not all our phones had great reception so we had to hotspot.

The location opposite the water was perfect. It is a lovely quiet place right on the water. The room was comfortable with basic requirements. It was good for a one night stay and close to areas to visit around town.
Unfortunately the double bed was against the wall so made it difficult for an older person to get in and out of during the night. The motel is very worn so the inside needs renovating as tiles and bathroom facilities needed renewing. It was then hard to rate the cleanliness as there were stains and shabby woodwork.

This place was great! It’s dated so expect a blast from the past but the bed and room comfortable. Could walk to the pier/beach (beautiful sunset!!!) and the wine bar amongst other things, electric charger across the road handy as well. Staff really friendly, I lost an earring and they sent it back to me in Melbourne.
Property is fine they just need to update everything online. Definitely stop referencing Covid and also the restaurant onsite as it’s well and truely closed.

Welcoming staff and easy check in. I loved sitting out on the balcony overlooking the bay with my morning coffee. Location was amazing with all the amendmenties you need all being walking distance.Thanks again for an enjoyable stay.
No shade for the carpark and for the pool area. Stairs were a bit steep to go to the upstairs room.. it was a shame that the restaurant had closed down it had an amazing view to dine there.

Location is great. Right near the waterfront. Meals, coffee, snacks available nearby. Staff went above and beyond to help us with small issue in our room. Quickly resolved and stay was great.
We thought it was good value for money however there was no power point handy to plug in kettle - had to sit it on the floor.. TV was not working on all channels but staff assured us they are in the process of replacing all TV's.

Great location. Walking distance to shops and eateries. Directly across from the beach.
Originally requested and given a room with a beach view, however, the room looked onto a hallway, which divided the beach view and was very dated and unpleasant. Disappointed, I asked to be changed to a pool view room, which was happily provided, and was much, much nicer. Appreciate the staff assisting with my request!

Great location and the best sunsets! Easy for walking along the beach and to restaurants. Comfy bed and very quiet. We had the best sleep. The enclosed balcony was a welcome surprise and it was lovely to sit and enjoy the view.
It's a little bit dated . Needed a couple more powerpoints and it would be great if the fridge wasn't in the wardrobe. Lighting was too vibrant.

The room was clean and quiet Free parking on site Close to a hotel and cafe for food Good view to the beach from the enclosed balcony
Power points for electrical items including the kettle and toaster were reliant on unplugging the TV or placing appliances on the bedside cabinets. No bowls or plates, spoons, knives or forks were included in the room items.

The hotel is in an amazing location and the sound proof rooms were fantastic for a great night's sleep. Beds were comfortable and clean and the host at reception was extremely helpful and friendly and gave great suggestions for eating locations plus great tips for our future travel plans.
Due to circumstances out of control, the hotel restaurant was shut (but so was the pub next door for two days). But we ended up getting an amazing and generous meal from the Chinese restaurant on Main. I highly recommend the Chinese Restaurant.
