Staff were awesome and so nice. Great location! I think the room could’ve been cleaner, there were dirty dishes in the cupboard, food on the ground, and hair in the bathroom. However, overall it was a good place to stay.
Very accommodating, we arrived early and they put our push bikes in a lockable shed. The only thing was shower was very tight could not move around properly. Very easy walking distance to dining.
Liked the location as it suited my requirements for this visit. Room was immaculately clean and we enjoyed the private balcony which was sheltered from the wind. Staff were great and friendly on check in. The room was very small and I didn't realise there would be no desk to work from.

Staff were great. Room and noise from other stayers were bad. Carpet had been cleaned and they had failed to dry the carpet correctly so the room stunk of musty carpet. Noise is an issue. Any inconsiderate person on the walkway outside the rooms is heard clearly like they are in your room. Leaving the ranchslider open means you will hear screeching gulls all night. Motel 8 quality rooms.
This accomodation has a lot of potential and is in a nice area for walking, nightlife and restaurants. The bathroom was in need of a deep clean, as well as the tiles (and in the kitchen) Cushions in the lounge need a good wash.
Unfortunately another guest was given the same room as ours and walked in!!.. It was then we realised we should have had the room more centre of the complex with the better view as requested, but missed out. We did ask if we could swap but no help there, which was a dissappointing start. So for the first time 3 stars from us.
It was so comfy with beautiful sea dock view, very clean and tidy, quiet and friendly staff. My family and I will definitely cone back on our next vacation
A great place to stay, walking distance to restaurants, bars, shops and the beach. Our room was lovely, self contained and had a little outdoor area with table and chairs. All the staff were lovely.

Great staff.
We were a bit disappointed with our family room, yes on the website it says no view, however it doesn’t say this on Expedia website, I have learned my lesson now though. I was not expecting to be in a sleepout sort of thing in the car park though, i think it would be fair to actually show true photos of what people will be paying for.
The room was clean and everything was topped up daily.
Lovely place, super comfortable bed, nice bathroom. Nice views of the harbour, very convenient for some very nice restaurants and bars within easy walking distance. Staff super friendly and helpful. Excellent value for money.
