Ocean View Motel

Great service from this motel, very simple motel, you pay for what you get.

Very noisy. Could hear other occupents. Showering and other activities on all sides of our room. The compressior in the fridge came on off continualltly throughout the night needs updating. The extractor fan in the bathroom was old and very noisy. We got very little sleep.

Very clean and comfortable room on the ground floor with free parking.Does not have a telephone but most people have a mobile these days. Easy to book over the phone, I prefer doing it direct with the Motel staff. Easy walk to restaurants and the beach.

The motel is close to the beach. The photos aren't really representative of the place now, as it is tired and rundown. The staff are all friendly. There are no photos showing the car park. Most of the lovely photos are from the 'ocean view' rooms and that is the minority. The rooms are clean and fairly well equipped with fridge, kettle etc. The problem is that the manager has installed super bright lights around the motel that shine into most of the rooms. He said it's for security, but any modern camera could detect movement in low light. I had to have the blinds fully drawn which didn't darken the room. I was in room 15 and it had a connecting door which let all the talking and noise from room 14 in. There is a set of steel stairs which are noisy when anyone with shoes and heels walks up or down. Really annoying when that is 5.30 am. For a standard room, room 17 is probably better as it faces a wall and doesn't have lights directly blasting into it.

The room was evidently clean on the tiles and surfaces that would be regularly wiped however the panel around the entry door was very grotty on the inside and there was an overwhelming smell of mould in the room that appeared to be coming from the bathroom where the vanity had clearly been water damaged. Didn't see a staff member so can't comment but received a pleasant text message re check in. Good parking available and very convenient to beach and Hillarys

The noise through the paper thin walls was excessive.I could hear everything the room beside me and below me.It says Ocean view but most rooms have a view of the car park. The kitchen area was terrible,the fridge seals where filthy and the paintwork rusty and flaking.

Not the easiest place to park. Some folk parked on the nature *****!

Clean crisp sheets and towels welcomed me after a long day. Check-in was easy. Thank you!

The property was very conveniently close to a function I was attending.
