Pros:

Quiet place and beautiful view. There was a fairly well-equipped kitchen.

Cons:

The only drawback was the hotel's restaurant not working, but that is unfortunately common in Australia at this time of year.

Pros:

Shower pressure was good, space was large and location was central, beach view was good.

Cons:

Toilet was so close to the sink, and the plastic seat kept moving and was uncomfortable. Lots of bugs everywhere and the bed was very squeaky, kept making noise everytime you moved.

Comfortable enough with great views but would have liked a couch and a toaster in room.
Pros:

Great views, comfortable bed. Fabulous well equipped guest kitchen.

Cons:

Shower curtain let water out. No couch for watching tv. No cooking in room, therefore no plates etc., just mugs and glasses and had to go to guest kitchen just to make toast.

Older hotel with fabulous ocean views
Pros:

The location. All rooms had an ocean view and a balcony or patio. Walking distance or short drive to downtown. The price was good. Great shower and towels.

Cons:

I didn’t like that they didn’t service the room since it was a holiday. We were there 3 nights with no service. The bed wasn’t comfortable and it was a little run down. But overall it was a good value.
