    My mum and I needed an overnight stay to catch up with relatives, this was perfect and a great price. Roomy, clean and comfortable with the convenience of a kitchenette and fridge containing free bottles of water and biscuits with the tea making facilities. Parking right outside our room. Nicely positioned by the Lake. The owners communicated well as I booked through booking.com. Our carpet had just been cleaned. Just up the road from Halakulani Bowls Club where we had a delicious dinner. Convenient distance into town to an excellent Cafe (name containing a number) has delicious breakfast ideas and friendly service. The coffee was good, and we were given free treats to try.

    Nice location but not very secure.

    Security on the doors had a swipe card but no other security (chain etc) and it looked like the door had been broken into at some stage. I was in bed and my wife sitting on the lounge when all of a sudden some guy walked in, his swipe card opened our door which wasn't a pleasant experience.

    Location was very good with the river straight out the front of the room, pub and eateries across the other side of the river (100 metres). 15 minutes to The Entrance and main tourist area.

    We received a courtesy call from the manager to confirm our arrival time. Even though we were arriving slightly earlier than the standard checkin time, he kindly agreed to have our room ready so we could get in straight away. We got a warm welcome on arrival and checked in as promised. The room was spacious and bright, with a good sized bathroom. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to the next time.

    This is actually a lovely and peaceful place to stay and I'd stay again. But it's a little worn out and tired feeling. My bedside lights wouldn't work, and the toilet clunked somehow (it was solid enough, but very loud to get on and off). The info folder is very out of date, so lots of the resturant brochures etc were no longer current. It just needs a little bit of fresh energy moving through and some mini tweaks!

    Lovely being so close to the water. The original design of the space is well thought out, especially having a door out to the lake. The room and bed were cosy and comfy and it was surprisingly quiet overnight.

    Motel is showing its age and there are a few things that need fixing.

    The location was excellent, right next to Budgewoi lake and a walking path. Lots of trees and we did a few walks along the path, up to Buff Point. Dogs were always on a leash, which is a big plus. Also just a short walk to the local pub and restaurant.

    Back door key didn’t work so bad to walk around to the front again after walking along the lake.

    Family room was very spacious. And opening up the back door to the lakeside view was incredible.
