Good location in Mermaid beach. Not a few minutes walk from the beach which is a minus. Pretty good accomodation and clean. Stuff in the reception were nice but didn't speak good English and couldn't help us a lot , but overall experience was good, good location, convenient parking and clean room with all the needs.

The room was ok but the outside was very tired and road works didn’t help finding the place. The property was expensive for what we got.

Parking was an issue. On one night we had to park on their neighbouring property. Park lines were faded and difficult to reverse into. Otherwise the facilities in the room were very good and staff were helpful. It's an old property that probably needs a facelift but we have stayed there on various occasions over many years.

A basic motel that has some maintenance requirements. The cleanly off the room and the property generally needed improvements. There was a domestic in the room next door at 5am and nothing was done to deal with this incident by any staff nor did QPS attend.

After a three night stay , The mattress in room 10 on the first night , I could feel the springs and there was no internet or cable tv plus the room smelled strange on arrival ,I thought there was a turd left in the toilet. room 3 & room 4 were better , better bed better smell too . Over all it wasn’t an unpleasant stay it was pleasant apart from room 10.

Cost friendly compare to other accommodations, but only 12 parking spots for entire motel. Also need to improve on pest control, found so many cockroaches in the room, but have to say for the price it’s acceptable.
