    The stairwell to the bedrooms is a bit scary for elder people.

    We liked the view from the balcony and the quietness of the location. Everything was clean and comfortable. Good value for the money. Would certainly recommend this motel to our friends travelling to the area.

    The suicidal steep stairs to the bedrooms influenced my wife to sleep on the couch downstairs. She was afraid of fallin when she needed to go downstairs to the toilet in the middle of the night

    The only thing that was of any concern are the stairs to the top floor of bedrooms, my partner and I are both a little over 60 and not exactly athlete’s anymore so the stairs were awkward but ok.

    Location was great and the motel was excellent. A little dated but clean, warm and comfortable.

    The stairs are dangerous!!! Lots of spider webbs! The bathroom is downstairs!!! It's uncomfortable for a person like me that is not so young any more, had a big back operation, now you must up and down to the bathroom!! It is not specified on the site!!!

    Nice apartment, heating, beds is ok, not good.

    Very steep driveway to property, not so good for lowered vehicle. Unit we were in had a very uneven floor which made it quite weird to walk on. Could imagine would make it interesting if you had a few under your belt. Our unit, the toilet was downstairs, bedrooms upstairs.

    Nice & handy to beach. Lovely views from the top.

    That the bed was under the curtains which meant I was exposed to the light outside and the cold air.

    The view, the accessibility to the restaurant, takeaways and harbour.

    The downstairs lock was difficult to lock and the upstairs lock on the sliding door was faulty and could be opened from the outside so we didn't leave any valuables in the accommodation when we went out. The locks really should be fixed. This was the only negative though as everything else was great 😃

    Plenty of space, presented well, super heating on a cold day and night, very comfortable beds. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

    No electric blanket, which is a problem at this time of year. Steps are very steep and deep up to the bedrooms.

    The somewhat impersonal and non- verbal communication between guests and staff did not bode well. We were merely texted instructions on how to access the unit given the proprietor was not on site for our mid-afternoon check-in. There was no follow-up contact to check if we had arrived and settled in etc. Furthermore, we initially could not operate the tv and texted the owner but received no response. Fortunately,, we managed to locate the remote control and access the wifi. A simple verbal call from the owner would have made all the difference as well as making us feel welcome. This experience proved to be rather disconcerting and disappointing.

    The location and cleanliness.

    It would be good if different thickness pillows were provided - I found them a bit to dense for me and my son. But that is a very minor point and certainly wouldn't stop us staying at the motel again.

    Great location - sea views from the main bedroom and an easy walk to the beach, jetty and local tavern for dinner. Nice and warm, well-equipped unit, with night lights on the stairs, which was great for those late night bathroom stops.
