Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a convenient location near the beach with reasonable prices, despite some noise issues. The rooms, although a bit dated, were clean and close to the bar. The staff was very accommodating and helpful, but noise disturbances were a drawback. The dining experience needs improvement with limited options. The proximity to the beach and local amenities makes it a worthwhile stay.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were very clean and catered well for the needs of myself and my teenage children, offering nice hot showers and plenty of coffee. However, the rooms were a bit dated and definitely due for a refurbishment. The service was top-notch, with staff being very polite and helpful. The location was excellent for walking to and from the beach, and there was an awesome pub downstairs. The dining experience was basic, with just toast and cereals available for breakfast, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few areas that could be improved.
The hotel was ideally located near Coles supermarket, perfect for the wedding I attended. The room was not as expected, a bit cramped and outdated compared to the booking image. The service was a mix, pleasant but not accommodating with a cleanliness issue on the balcony. The dining experience was average, with limited options for breakfast. The location was convenient for various activities but suffered from early morning noise disturbances.
