I made contact with the host days leading up to my arrival to inform I would be arriving rather late to told I would be sent details upon arrival. On the morning of my last night there I was sent txt msgs accusing me of smoking which I do not nor have I ever done so to make it worse the host wrote there in bold but accusing only me!!! I was literally there to only sleep due to a busy schedule with friends to celebrate my birthday. I never used the spa didn’t make any noise and most certainly didn’t smoke. The property should also disclose that it’s not accessible friendly for people like myself with impaired mobility!! All the accommodation is upstairs and not very well lit. Thank goodness for having friends living nearby as I didn’t feel comfortable returning to the property I would never recommend nor stay here again ever

I arrived late as explained to the host and basically left early each morning and back very late so only there to sleep. I get txt msgs in bold writing accusing me of smoking and other guests complaining I’ve never smoked and wasn’t there long enough to see any other guests. The host made me feel extremely uncomfortable and not welcome considering I was staying to celebrate my birthday with friends who live nearby I’ll never stay nor recommend this place. I insisted the host check cameras to see my comings and goings I feel like I’ve been judged on my artwork shame on you

Great communication. Nice touches leaving extra goodies. Bonus that you could watch Netflix too. Bed not comfortable though. Like most motels body imprints both sides and need to sleep on middle of bed. Motels in general need to consider better mattresses.

One night only. Very good. Everything as expected. Price reasonable. Bed comfortable. Facilities clean and tidy. Nice view over town out to Bass Strait. Walking distance to cafes and small town centre. A few interesting little shops in main street. Will stay again.
