Just your average motel. Nothing really to complain about. Service could be a little more friendly / happier. and there was no aircon / heater in the room. Just a ceiling fan. More

Thankyou for your comments. I am surprised & disapointed that you felt the staff could be more friendly. Staff are asked to smile & make conversation with all guests.This is obviuosly an area that requires more of my attention. Thank you. All rooms have air con. In some rooms a curtain might be needed to be moved so as to... More

We travel to Coffs Harbour quite a number of times a year but were definately disappointed with the so called "RESORT" on arrival we were barely greeted by the rude reception worker and our room had apparently been upgraded and recently refurbished the rooms were really small with not alot of room to move it may well have been revamped...

Thankyou for your comments. We are sorry the property did not meet your requirements. As far as the "dirty coffee cup marks on the table " are concerned closer inspection would have revealed that they are marks from persons placing hot drinks on solid timber table without due consideration as to what effect they would have. The dirty coffee cup... More

My family and I stayed here in January 20012. The room was spotless, newly decorated and was presented better than many four star hotels we have stayed in. The staff were very accommodating and I will certainly stay here again when I am in Coffs Harbour. You would not be disappointed staying here!!! More

This is AT BEST a 2 star accomodation with a price of a 4 star. My family paid $185 for one night at this run down over priced inn with an unpleasant owner/manager to match. I don't wish to waste my time even writing about this place, honestly FORGET IT. More

I am sorry that you did not enjoy your stay. We have just recently taken over the management of this property & I think you will find the pricing much more realistic & the rooms much more appealing. All rooms have been fully renovated & there is no more "run down over priced inn with an unpleasant manager" So don't... More

Very nicely appointed rooms. Little balcony adds to the room. We were in room 5 which is on the ground floor with brand new finishing and a very comfortable queen size bed. Didn't try the food or pool on site but both seemed clean. More

There is a lot of choice in kitchy motels in Coffs Harbour to catch the people using the place as a mid point stop between Brisbane & Sydney. This one fits the bill of reasonably priced and adequate levels of comfort to get you through the night. It's a little bit out of the center of town so you will... More

I booked 2 rooms for a quick overnight stay in Coffs on our way up to Brisbane. My parents were given their own room downstairs and my children and myself were across the other end of the property. So far so good. We only slept overnight and left before breakfast. Upon checking out I was asked if we used anything... More
