We were very happy with our room here...set quite a way back from the main part of Port Macquarie suited us as we were visiting on business and needed a good nights' sleep. The bed was comfy and the place was clean. The host was friendly and welcoming.

- You can tell the management tried with a big flat screen tv and nice couch, but the bed and bathroom were only ok. Free Internet but it wouldn't connect for us - management tried to reset it 3 times but it still didn't work.

We turned up with no advance booking, but the manager was a very pleasant chap & got us fixed up no bother. Maybe we were just unlucky, but our room was one that obviously hadn't been renovated. However, the bed was clean & comfortable, so it was ok for the one night. Would we use this motel again ? -... More

Thankyou for taking the time to submit a review! I don't think you were unlucky as we only have one room that purposefully hasn't had it's facilities upgraded recently. We do brand that as a Budget Twin room for guests who would like an option that is less expensive than the standard Double rate of $89 and advertise it as... More

We lucked upon this hotel and we loved it. From the outside it's a work in progress with painting and renovations happening. The inside is lovely. We had a 2 room family room. Full kitchen and bathroom. Lots of space. Spotlessly clean and heavenly beds. The hosts were welcoming and very friendly. Would have loved to have stayed longer. We... More

4 of us stayed here for 1 night while traveling from Gold Coast to Sydney. We thought we booked a room in the motel, but we got the entire beach house instead. We were really overwhelmed by it because it had like 5 bedrooms, 2 toilets, a kitchen, living room, dinning room and a 2-door garage. There was even a... More

It's difficult to pigeonhole this motel in a review. At the negative end the exterior appearance, driveway, etc ably illustrates that this place has been here for a long time. The room itself was more impressive - some clever and thoughtful renovation and the efforts to provide a quality mini bar/snacks was appreciated. The tiled floor could have been cleaner... More

Stayed here on our way to Byron Bay, great comfortable rooms, had all we needed for our stop over, would go back again. A little difficult to find entry, missed the turn off, but no drama. The key pad entry to the rooms a great asset too! Rooms were clean and beds were nice and comfortable

Compact, clean and tidy motel. Floorboards clearly transmit noise, we arrived at 11pm as a family for just the night stay on our journey north, was completely shocked to get a knock on the door at 6.30 am from the manager telling us to stop our children from moving about in the room as it was noisy for others.

Not to put too fine a point on things, but I have been managing this motel for approximately fifteen years. I have had an Overnighter class room right next to my bedroom for all of that time and it has been occupied by small families with children. I have NEVER been witness to the kind of noise that was coming... More

We had a funeral to attend and needed to book somewhere on short notice. The manager's telephone manner was lovely and he was very helpful. We got in a little late and after checking in, went to park the car. We had a few dramas finding a car park relatively close to the room. I'm not one to leave no... More
