Very Good

View was great even on ground floor. Loved that the 2 beds were in separate areas of the room. Unit is older than expected but very comfortable. Only down was no dessert/cereal bowls. Travelled during fires so was pleased Hostess stayed in contact with us before we arrived re situation.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Friendly, helpful staff. Room clean and great view over the ocean. Quiet because away from main holiday hustle and bustle.
Was clean and comfortable. Very reasonable price with amazing views. Could walk to beautiful beach in a few minutes. Host was very friendly. Loved our stay and would come again.
Beautiful view of ocean from all upstairs rooms. Very clean room. Building could do with some maintenance but other than that, we loved it.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
If I could rate it less than 1 star I would. The hotel was dirty, falling apart and had bugs, roaches to be clear. We took pictures. Very disappointing!
Although the room was quite outdated, it was clean and had everything we needed. The motel is situated on the Great Ocean Rd, close to town and had an incredible view of the ocean!
