We stayed in the Terrace Apartments (which face the front road). Our apartment was well equiped with all cooking esentials. Fridge/freezer, front load washer & dryer, iron & ironing board. Reverse cycle heating which worked well. BBQ was at the back of the pool area free to use, also outdoor setting at each back door. Parking available at our front... More

Just your standard "Golden Chain" Motel. I stayed in a 2 bed room apartment. The kids room had a bunk bed, and the main bedroom had a queen-sized bed. The bathroom had a shower as well as a large bathtub. The toilet was detached from the bathroom. All standard amenities were provided. Basic kitchen with cutlery and stovetop. Milk, teabags... More

We stayed here two nights. Our small motel unit was clean and well supplied with good lush towels. It was a nuisance not having a kitchen sink when you have a toaster and kettle. The "kitchen bench" was about as wide as the small bar fridge plus a little underbench cupboard about 30cm wide. There was barely room to do... More

I'm sorry you were not happy with not having a kitchen sink in your standard room but we do have self contained apartments that do provide this. Changes have also been made... More

We stayed here for one night in January on the way home from The Great Ocean Road. Our lower level room was comfortable, clean and spacious. It was very light in the morning - sunlight came in the very light coloured curtains - but overall a nice sleep - as it was not noisy, couldn't hear the main road traffic... More

I'm sorry we don't have microwaves in the standard rooms. We do have them in our deluxe rooms and apartments or you can request a microwave on arrival free of charge. More

My wife and I stayed in one of the apartments overnight. The place was just a bit too small for two adult couples . Two adults with a couple of kids might find it ok. Our visit was in mid spring and the swimming pool facilities were not yet in operation. The apartment needed airing out. Perhaps that happens during... More

I'm sorry that you didn't use our pool whilst you were here. The pool would have been open and operational, we just leave the cover on to keep it clean and keep in the heat. More

We stayed here with family in the next room. Found it to be quiet, clean and rooms are spacious, nicely made over. The family room was very good with a Queen Bed and to singles and plenty of space.
