This was not a lavish but it was clean and it was a great price. We liked it enough to book a second night. The management was attentive and helpful.

Owner and staff were very very helpful as friendly.

Keith Australia

Liked it all including the staff!, pool & the fantastic view across the bay! Our kitchen window also included a view of the rock aswell. We were stayed for New Years (somewhat unexpectedly) but couldn't have been happier, keeping in mind that this is not a 6 star resort of course :)

Chris provided excellent service to make us feel welcome and was very friendly. We enjoyed our stay with the hotel. Breakfast was delicious and was ready in time for us to make our trip over to Magnetic Island in time for the ferry time we hoped to catch. Thank you to Chris for a lovely stay.

The owners, management and staffs are so lovely and helpful. The rooms are spacious and the view is amazing. The motel is well located. Only a short stroll to the city (uphill on the way back). Nice walking tracks to Castle Hill.
