Great location. Close to everything in this little tourist precinct. Motel undergoing upgrade and is looking modern inside. Great rates. Staff friendly & helpful. Management considers guest safety with closed gates 8pm and deadlocks on room door. Clean. Free wifi. Clean pool and spa. Parking outside room A 5-10 minute walk to beach, Jetty Rd and shops. Room had toaster but no knives or plates. Could have been oversight. Would definitely stay there again.
