Room was clean and comfortable with everything needed for a short stay. Bowling club next door runs the motel and one years membership was included. We did have a problem with a couple who were loud and aggressive but this was well handled and they were asked to leave.

Enjoyed our stay at Forster Palms Motel. Was told it is owned by the Bowling club next door which was so convenient for dinner on the day we stayed. A nice gesture from the club also by giving each guest a free drink, a $1 keno game and complimentary membership to the club for a year. Would certainly be happy to stay here again if we have the need to visit Forster in the future.

The property was fine however when checking in we found our booking form (paid) had been signed by another guest (unpaid). ID should have been checked. It was disconcerting.

The property has had some upgrades around the pool and BBQ areas. The room was quiet even though it was near the main road. Close to everything without being right in the heart of everything!
