Clean and very friendly staff who helped us out with a late check-in. The only reason for the 4 stars is that it is a bi8t run down and would benefit from updated bed linens.
This accomodation was right in the city centre and also very clean!

Location is unbeatable. The hotel is a bit run down but the room is big with all the basics you need. They need to do pest control though as we’ve had quite a few crawling animals during our stay.
Perfect place to stay, friendly host, comfy beds, helped us out after we missed our flight home 🤘

Our six night stay in October 2025 was just wonderful. Steve and Helen were so friendly and helpful, the room was spacious and bedding very comfortable. One highlight was the balcony which added to the relaxation. The motel's location was excellent, adjacent to the main shopping and restaurant street and going through to the Lagoon using a private access gate. The lagoon pool and surrounds were lovely and again another highlight. Cheers Gill and Bill.
Great location being immediately behind the lagoon, friendly staff with clean rooms. Rooms are a little dated but wasn't an issue for us. We would stay there again.
I don’t think you can find a better location. To the front is the main street, to the rear is the lagoon. As far as the staff, Helen and Steve were more than accommodating and a pleasure to deal with. They recommended a place to go eat, and it was fabulous. The room itself is a typical beach room. The interior was clean, with a microwave, coffee and refrigerator. Again, location, location, location!

An amazing location, right on the main street and backing onto the lagoon, but the hotel is pretty tired and in need of a refresh. If you want to be right in town, but on a budget, this is a good option.
