"The motel may look a big aged but trust the owner is doing the best to keep up with the standard and welcome the guests. We had two days stay in the two bedroom unit, it was well equipped with the comfy furniture in the lounge, big fridge in the kitchen, accessible bathroom. enough beds to accommodate two families or family with adult children, handy beach access for the morning/evening walks. we certainly enjoyed our stay in the motel, will stay again when we are in the area next time too."
