Booked for three nights over labour weekend for 3 adults. Was given room 14 2nd level, found room to be dated with a quick badly slap of paint done in the not too distant past. No remote for the air conditioning unit. Spoke to who I assume was the manager who found a remote and placed it in the room while we went out for food. Got back around 8pm and found the tv remote not working (no manual switches) and reception closed so no tv for the night.Turned out to be flat batteries for remote which as well as the air conditioner remote the batteries were held in with sellotape.First morning slipped over in bath room as floor was covered in water with it leaking through the light fitting from the room upstairs.No plumber available apparently as long weekend, Room was a 1 bedroom with queen bed and 2 singles in bedroom. Offered us a single room with 2 single beds and a rollaway bed for a disabled person.Then offered an equivalent room which would only be available the next day which I accepted, Manager said the would ring when ready.All this was done over the phone as we had to be else where and the reception does not open until 9am. No phone call and by the time we got back found the room had not been serviced and reception closed.Bucket with a towel in it was the solution for the water leak.Finally caught up with Manager at reception on day of departure who said the person on reception the previous day tried to ring me, they had not.Only a $50 refund for all the inconvenience.

Great location but not happy with our room being right in the middle of a 6 rooms of football team. They were 3 rooms either of us, we had to lock the door as we had people just wandering into room or trying to get in at night. The last night they were all drinking and being really loud and had to ask them at 12.30am to be quiet. Don’t know why you would allocate rooms like that, they should’ve all been put at one end of the complex so other guests didn’t have to put up with it. We weren’t the only ones affected. Something to be aware of when booking at labour weekend.

The place was what we needed for a weekend of activities. If we were at the motel more then the lack of privacy between the master bedroom and the kids in the lounge would have been an issue. But since we were there to sleep it was fine. We did have dinner there one night and the kitchenette had everything we needed. Cooktop, electric frypan, kettle, toaster, microwave. Even had pots, Pyrex bowl for cooking with. If you care about the decor of a place then you are likely to find it ‘dated’. But I found the beds comfy, the room warm, the shower pressure amazing and plenty of hot water. Spa bath was great, although strange to have no privacy from bedroom or even the kids. Room was clean and they came each day to fix up. We had a city view but were on the bottom floor so you don’t view anything apart from your car, but again, we didn’t care. It’s close to everything and the walkway was just over the road to start our bike trips. There is issues with condensation on the windows/doors if it’s cold outside which maybe causes a little mould. Would stay again for sure.
This is taken from the master bed - there is no wall or curtain or anything. You sit on the bed and look at the person in the spa.
Electric frypan worked a treat
Those are NOT windows - only blinds. Goes master bedroom straight to spa bath by the back windows

Moved to Shoreline Motel

On morning of arrival day, informed that our room not available due to a fire. Was offered a replacement room with a city view when we had booked an ocean view. Stated we wanted a discount or an ocean view room and eventually given an ocean view room in the Shoreline Motel next door. Spa bath leaked onto floor from underneath, making carpet wet. Reception staff informed but reacted as if they already knew about the problem.

Room is very tired. Toilet not functioning properly and damage to the door. During our stay the roof of the building caught fire and we were transferred to another room. Several walls had ripped or missing wallpaper and lock on door did not function properly. Generally needs a tidy up with maintenance.
