## Reviews

Rated **4.2** on Google, 91 reviews, as at October 2026.
> Fantastic, budget-friendly stay! The rooms are incredibly warm, surprisingly quiet, and the hosts are wonderful. It’s pet-friendly, which made traveling with our dog so easy. Best of all, our children absolutely loved staying here during the school holidays—being able to walk to Ninja Valley just one minute away was a massive bonus! Unbeatable convenience near local shops and restaurants. Highly recommend!, Goddess Gatherings By The Sea, 2 months ago
> The place was terrible the rooms are dirty and furniture stained. They had even removed the hot tap in a 1 bed unit. Fingernail clippings on a fresh made bed!! Fridge feeezes, how they get good reviews i dont know. Friendly staff but beware the food truck in the front yard, Maree B, 8 months ago
> I had a wonderful stay at this motel! The room was spotless, comfortable, and had everything I needed — truly perfect in every way. What made the experience even better was the owner, who is not only kind and helpful but also a genuinely good human being. It’s rare to find such hospitality these days. Highly recommended, Tashfia Tasnim, a year ago
