Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The property was acceptable. The car parking situation was poor as oversized trees have made parking spaces unusable with raised surfaces of bitumen (30cm) at edge of space rendering it unusable. Other tenants cars are parked in available spots leaving the last with nowhere to park. I arrived back from working at 11pm, too late to advise reception & therefore left without accessible onsite parking.
Spa and comfy bed, could do with fresh coat of paint and new carpet as there was a burn mark in my room on carpet
Quite room just there for 1 night do ok for that
My vehicle is a large ute and my parking spot right against a tree which made it difficult to keep far enough away from the next car. Need to address this .

We had a wonderful stay at the Coachman! Clean, the staff was very hospitable, and the location was perfect!
Older, well maintained motel style rooms with good features like sink and refrigerator. HVAC system a little too noisy. The staff were welcoming and helpful.
Great location an easy stroll to the beach shopping hotel and restaurants.

Liked: Cleanliness
Our room was basic, but good and clean. Would have been good to have some more milk, coffee and maybe some small breakfast cerals. There were no extra towels in the closet as mentioned in the room booklet. The only major issues were the person that parked so close to my car, i couldnt get into the drivers side and had to climb over the passenger seat, and the other being woken up at 5am by the person next door sitting out the front of the room having a smoke and talking while kids where running around outside. Wasnt the best for my young daughter and i who had a bid days drive ahead of us. Apart from that, it was ok.
Smart TV's in each room but TV's limited by 2.4Ghz. TV unable to stream due to connect issues and stability.
However 5Ghz WiFi on phones and tablets was flawless.
