Dated & basic
Posted 21-Sep-2016Chose a 'mystery' hotel, abit disappointed with what it was for the price, train tracks were very close

Pros: Staff helpful and friendly, easy access to the beach, playground for the kids outside the u it was handy.
Cons: Double glazing needed to lower train noise though with where tracks are doubt would block but would assist. Upgrade in units, a few issues
Location: Beach handy walk but be aware of crossing train tracks with young kids, seal swim, whale watch, fishing tours including for crayfish, restaurants etc
Trains at the unit door were annoying through the night, double glazing wouldnt go astray. rooms could do with an update but when tired from a long drive it was good. Staff was lovely and helpful so would return again for the service.

I enjoyed my short stay at this motel. Friendly manager (he gave me lemons from his tree) and a nice comfortable and relaxing feel to this place.

Lovely place close to town.
Posted 24-Mar-2016
Pros: Plenty of space, really clean and close to beach and town
Location: Whale watching and dolphin swimming is just minutes down the road from this place. There's great spots to eat and drink just minutes away.
Three of us had a lovely stay at the Alpine View, which is just a few minutes drive from town. The owners are hilarious with their cheeky banter back and forth and they keep the rooms impeccably clean. This is a great budget priced venue that far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended.

Destination à privilégier
Posted 16-Mar-2016 on HotelsLe soleil a agrémenté notre séjour malgré le vent qui nous a privés de la sortie en mer "whale watch" (houle trop importante) mais la promenade le long du Pacifique de 2h fut très vivifiante.
L'hôtel est très calme et situé à côté de Countdown pour les courses.
Très bons fish&chips en ville (blue cod) et jolis magasins (Geneviève's).

Disappointing Motel
Posted 08-Mar-2016 on HotelsThe room was very dated and in need of refurbishment. The bathroom was horrible. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
