Narooma Motel

Stayed here as it was the only property available for a short stay in Narooma. I wouldn't personally go back, but that's because it was a little more rustic than I was expecting (it's called a motel but not the standard of other motels I've stayed at in Australia; this is clearly more of a YHA that attempted to convert some rooms to attract non-YHA guests). So if you stay expecting more of a hostel experience, you won't be disappointed. The rooms were small and old, but at least had a fairly modern aircon unit. The bathrooms are *exceptionally* tiny; the small sidewalk-sized patio area outside of the unit is bigger by comparison. The bed linens were thankfully clean, but the curtains and carpets were quite musty and stained. There is minimal tabletop space to store your luggage/other items, so I would suggest bringing something easily accessible like a storage tub to set on top of a table and take thins in and out of. The doors don't seal particularly well and the bathroom windows don't close, so be aware it can get quite cold in the night and that critters may come in. And you'll hear a lot of outside noise accordingly. All in all, it's a place to sleep, but not much more than that.
