The room was clean, very old though, needs updating. Too small for family of 4. Bathroom tiny. Very noisy, positioned on two roads, so lots of traffic noise even though out of town /shopping area.

View was nice, located on a hill. Couldn’t see the ocean from the ground floor. Parked in front of our unit. Merimbula is a beautiful spot, with lots of walks and beaches. Staff were happy to help.

There were no power points near the bed. That is a problem for someone who uses a sleep apnoea machine. Also the power point where the tv was plugged made some fizzing noises. Didn’t sound safe
