Service was very friendly and accommodating, but the room is very dated (originally from the 1970s probably) with a few random features modernised, most probably because they had to be. Bed was old and well worn and not that comfortable, but it was okay for one night. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2020 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Beverly 8 Oct 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The location is excellent.

Very pleasant and helpful staff. ##### Judy Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### janet 23 Nov 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Old but clean Lovely people but the motel was very old but clean. The bed cover could do with a wash. The room was quite cramped, but the bed was comfortable. No wifi which is unusual these days. ##### janet Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shebri 1 Nov 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### On the Edge of the Lake This is a budget motel, but is extremely clean and has everything you need for a short stay. It is on the edge of the Lake and the owners have been thoughtful to put tables and seating out there. The motel itself is quite old, but does have all the amenities that more upmarket motels/hotels offer. This was my second stay here, will stay again and would definitely recommend. ##### Shebri Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Michelle 15 Jul 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice hotel on waterfront Nice waterfront hotel close to Lake Macquarie, shops pubs and beaches.
