After reading awful reviews we were a bit worried but didnt have any choice as we needed to stay in the location & didnt have time to look around.

Walking distance to shops, large rooms, good shower, comfy bed, have stayed in a lot worse so no major complaints, it is what it is.

For us this was a room to just sleep in & was adequate & fulfilled our needs, the reception staff were friendly & helpful.

Probably not where you would want to spend a holiday but I would stay again if I had to.

Being desperate to find somewhere close to Coledale and thiroul beach at the last minute we booked 3 rooms for my family and bridal party.
I told our guests not to expect much because of the reviews i read and i didnt want them to be disapointed... On arrival things seemed ok!
The rooms looked clean but the was mould in the cupboards and the bathrooms.
One of the rooms we had smelt really bad, like it was damp... There were no screens on the windows and 1 of the screen doors would not shut....that happened to be the one my 11 month old son fell through and almost jammed his finger! I do not recomend this place for babies....not safe!!!!
Not caring about all that stuff to much we let it go cause it was the weekend of our wedding and we didnt want anything to spoil it... However as the day went on we discovered the staff were quite rude at times... The cleaner was a lovely lady but the management were extremely rude at times.
Aswell as that, when we left the rooms, we told the cleaner, whom we got along real well with that we kept the rooms very clean and all that was left was the sheets and towels to be changed! She was very happy with that however we were called 2 days later to tell us that they had charged our credit card the day before because the rooms were not clean?? We asked why this was the case as the cleaner was more then pleased with the room, she went on saying she did not wish to discuss it and hung up on us!!! To cut the story down, we tried for 3 weeks after we stayed there to get our money back that they charged to our credit card, Because they had no reason to do so and no permission.... still to this day we are still trying to get our money back that they claim has been refunded.What we dont get is why they charged our credit card when we paid cash and were not given a reason to why we were charged in the first place. It wouldf interest me to know how many more people have been ripped of this way....
If you stay there i advise you to check your credit card statements!UNBELIEVEABLE!!!

We went to a wedding this weekend and left it until the last minute to find somewhere to stay. They were fully booked and ended up calling us about a cancellation. It was $115 for the night and got us out of a bind.

It's not flash for sure and suffers from the 70s pastel disease. It was clean enough however. Just old and starting to get a bit run down. It's not where you would stay for a holiday but just for the night; somewhere cheap to stay it did the job. Don't expect much and you won't be disappointed! Better still look elsewhere if you can.

We stayed at the Thirroul beach motel for 2 nights. On both of the occasions we went to the reception there was no one there which made it difficult to check in.We opened up the room which was clean looking and quite spacious. The bed sheets however did smell particularly clean and the mattress was obviouldy very old with springs coming out the mattress and a substantial dent on one side of the mattress. The motel is located on a major road which made it very difficult to sleep. I would not recommend this hotel.
