The room had cockroaches. Room floor buckled, uneven, and a trip hazard, we tripped on a raised joint on the floor boards. No hair dryer or microwave, no glasses in room for water, only 2 cups, onl 1 teabag, very poor for the price. Waited 1/2 hour to find someone to check us in.

The Tea Gardens motel is a great pkace to stay. They had nice sizeable rooms for the price I paid. There was a childrens playground in the centre area, which makes it great for families. The dining options are big considering thete is a restaurant at the motel, and other restaurants in the area. The bay outside the motel is just across the road, and provides a nice view when you are outside. The atmosphere is very welcoming and you feel comfortable staying here.

Nice room but a little noisy on the main road. Lights are on on the balcony until the hotel closes. Could do with better blinds or curtains,

The accommodation was good but would not recommend staying on a Saturday night the live band was very noisy and when it ended at about 10.30pm the guests were even noisier. Apart from that it was a nice place to stay.
