Pros: Location is perfect, close to the beach and restaurants. The room is reasonably clean considering its price. Cons: The noise is really bad in the rooms facing the petro station, and the road. This and the soft mattress made my stay very uncomfortable as I personally prefer a firmer mattress.

Well priced motel near the main beach, ocean baths & town centre. The two managers were so helpful & generous towards me made my stay a most comfortable one. The rooms are clean, air con worked well and had the basics of tea, coffee, milk, biscuits, cutlery & washing liquid. I was very happy and recommend Forstay if you're looking for an overnight stay with helpful staff.
