The staff were excellent. The property was spotless and the position was fab.
We had various challenges arise during our stay: a tour pickup that didn’t materialize, a flat battery in a rental car, etc. In every case the hotel reception folks were amazingly helpful and supportive. The hotel itself is very peaceful and pleasant with an amazing location right on the harbor, and comfortable, well laid out rooms, but it was the personal warmth and kindness of the staff that made the stay exceptional.
Nothing could have been better.
everything except the shower
The shower hard to get wet so slow and slipery floor even with a mat step off mat and very slipery
Locations couldn’t have been better rESTAURANTS AND BARS ALL WITHIN walking distance.
I found the shower potentially very dangerous as it was narrow and in a small bath. No grab rails in or out to prevent a fall ,this would be an easy fix.
Quiet location, good sized room for 3 people. Close to main street for restaurants and shopping. A short walk to the beach.
An exceptionally spacious motel room .with all the comfort you could wish for. Nice view over the harbour and sunny balcony. Extremely friendly and helpful owner. Ask for room 12 or 13 which have a covered balcony and make sure to get a room on the first floor overlooking the inner harbour.
The view was stunning, location perfect and super friendly staff.

Cigarette smell from the next door balcony wafted into the room
Compact kitchen area with all you need to make breakfast. Good location to restaurants and the roads to other areas . Very friendly helpful staff.
We had a very good stop over at your motel we found it well appointed, wonderful bathroom one of the most practical set out we have been in.
Bit of road noise early morning.
Nice bed, good location
Road outside was busy at times
Location and can walk along riverside
Forgot to mention light bulbs need replacing in bedroom
No breakfast, but wonderful cafe right next door.
Bed wasn’t bad, but a bit soft and springy. A mattress topper would sort it
GREAT LOCATION, EASY ACCESS, CENTRAL TO EVERYTHING WE NEEDED, AWESOME GREEETING AND COMMUNICATION
Really well located, big room and really quiet. It was very well equipped and was spotlessly clean. Bed was big and really comfy.
Nothing!
spacious rooms, very comfortable. Central & close to central city amenities
Other tenants were quite loud at times & arriving in the small hours waking us up.
