We were looking for a clean and comfortable place to rest our heads at night after fun days out and about. It met our expectations based on price and photos. Handy location near Woolies, not close enough to walk to the beach but an easy couple of minutes drive. Would definitely stay again.

Motel was clean and near a shopping centre, room was comfortable and no traffic noise. Only issue was no remote for the tv and no one at the office to ask for one. Other than that all was good.
