My room was well presented and smelled really good too; well done there. It had everything you needed. My one and only slight negative is the bathroom size. Quite small really and the mirror above the sink was so low I had to crouch down when I shaved. Okay if you are 4' but hey, the room itself more than makes up for this.

Nice and convenient - right across the road from a lovely beach that was perfect for kids. Crystal clear water and loads of little sea critters to spot in the shallows! Reception was lovely and very helpful, and the room was clean and comfortable.

Need better customer service

The room was renovated and clean . I only had one bad issue and no customer service, you the contact number and no answer and leave a message on their service, i receive a response 2 to 3hours late . We had a issue with one of the rooms that very loud noise and yelling for over 3 hours. Can not contact management at all so we had to call the police .

If you are looking for clean, modern and smart accommodation on the peninsula, you cannot go past the Keith Motel, and do not be fooled by outside appearances. The rooms are trendy and immaculate with good sized smart TVs and excellent Wi-Fi reception. Management cannot be more helpful, even though they are not situated on premises. You pay a little more to get a lot back in return
