"Located within a flat walkable distance to Shoal Bay, in a quiet location. Staff were friendly. We had the 3 bedroom unit, shared by 4 single adults, spacious and clean.It is an older property l, 2 stories, with a kitchenette and 2 bathrooms, our room could do with a new lounge (it was torn), but for the cost, it was good value and clean. Easy off street parking. There’s a lovely in-ground pool area and a restaurant on site - we didn’t get to use them. Walking distance to Wests Club was handy...

When we opened our door we were greeted with a view of neighbouring buildings. We haven’t travelled much before but I guess common sense should have told us you don’t get window views on a last minute site. Was also a bit surprised when reception was closed at 6pm, and because of this we couldn’t do express checkout thenext morning when we actually wanted to leave early"
