We are a family of 5, so the bed set up was perfect, kids thought it was quite a novelty having all the beds in one room. Staff were nice. It could have done with a simple wire clothes hanger to hang out bathers/ towels. Bathroom floor could have done with a slightly better clean as hairs were present. Lovely location, about 25mins from Merewether beach and Newcastle 5mins more. We enjoyed dinner at the local RSL. For the one night it ticked most boxes for us

What we didn't like was the smoke alarm wasn't working in the unit and was told it would be fixed the next day and it wasn't. No hot water for the shower. No sink in the kitchen had to use basin in the bathroom

Only half decent

The queen bed moved all the time. Almost fell on my back whilst watching TV. There was rubbish under the bed, so it obviously had not been cleaned. There was no sink in the kitchenette, so had to fill kettle and wash up in bathroom sink.

It’s a very basic Hotel. Yes there are some letdowns and parking is a problem but it’s well priced and midway between Belmont and Swansea and it’s always clean. I’ve been here about half a dozen times on fishing trips and have no problem with it.

Alexandra

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was near the highway and very loud. Room was separated by internal door and the neighbours rattled that door at 11 pm waking me up (as a single female traveller this was terrifying). The neighbours then proceed to talk loudly which sounded like they were in the room due to zero sound proofing. Not close to restaurants/ grocery stores and view is of a wall. Very expensive for a motel and would not recommend.
