Overall, good accomodation having a family room which gave plenty of space, was reasonably modern and presented well. Unfortunately the overall experience was marred by a shower head that was broken, not giving a constant flow of water.

We had to park on the street as the motel car park was full (including the spot in front of our room). The hot water system from next door kept making a constant loud banging noise which got quite annoying by the end of the night and trying to sleep. The room was comfortable and clean, kitchen had everything we needed, tea/coffee/sugar/milk provided, beds were comfortable.

The bathroom had no fan, there was a birdsnest outside the room so at 5am chirping starts. The bathroom wasn’t really clean, there was hair in it still. Good for a cheap and quick stay as the location was good.

For an overnight stop this was perfect. It is close to the beach. There was no balcony and the picture on the advertising materials was for a different part. However, the room was spacious and met what we required.

Great location! I would highly recommend booking the ocean view rooms (we were only staying one night so we booked a motel room) so glad we stayed in Port Campbell - it’s a stunning, quaint town! Walking distance to everything! Our bathroom window wouldn’t close (broken) so a bit chilly when we were showering and the bedroom aircon (on warm) didn’t work. Other than that, we would stay again!

Walking distance room.

The room was a nice size and is walking distance to everything. The bed was comfortable but the room just seems slightly worn.
