Would stay again but be sure to take ear plugs next time.
Pros:

The place was clean, the single beds were comfortable, the location was good and the price was very good.

Cons:

At a hotel like this you are at the mercy of the other guests. Unfortunately, alcohol fuelled guests didn’t show any respect to others at the hotel. Talking and having TV playing loudly until the early hours of the morning i.e. 0200 hrs

Pros:

Cheap and cheerful accommodation. Very good pub restaurant. A short drive to Caves Beach. Had breakfast at the Surf Club before going through the main cave, then sat in the rock pools on the other side. Excellent way to start the day.

Cons:

The rooms in the hotel appear to be going through a stage of renovation. Probably temporary.
