“Happy to stay again!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Second stay a year from the first time and pleasantly surprised the rate was still the same. Had another upstairs room which offers a breeze and a lovely view of the water. The room is adequate and comfortable, however this time we seemed to notice it a little more when the neighbours were showering or boiling the kettle, but we slept soundly all the same. The service had improved on our last stay with the front desk being more attentive and pleasant. Again we walked the 100 metres or so to the RSL club for dinner .. it seemed a more reasonable choice than the Clancy's restaurant in the motor inn. This time we walked around Lakes Entrance much more after dinner and realised that the location is really better than previously rated. As our stay was just another stop to shower and sleep on our journey, it was more than enough to satisfy weary travellers and we would recommend it and stay here again.

Room Tip: Upstairs rooms are airy and have a nice view.

“Great Value Place to Stay.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 October 2011

Overnighted here on the way to Melbourne. Got a good cheap deal on Wotif including a continental breakfast pack which was excellent. Free internet and TV with movie channels available. The motel is well located with views on the upper level and only a short walk to shops and restaurants (we ate at The Ferryman's Cafe, it was very good). The room had a queen bed and was very clean and comfortable. The bathroom was well set out with one of the best showers I have ever had away from home.

“An excellent stopover option”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 December 2010

We stayed here on our way north to Merimbula just before Christmas. Our party booked a family room and a double spa room and in both cases we found the rooms to be large and comfortable. The accomodation was clean and well maintained, with lots of spare pillows and blankets which were useful when the weather turned unseasonable. The location is excellent - on the waterfront and within easy walking distance of the local RSL for a good dinner. The motel restaurant was closed on this Monday night, but breakfast was delivered on time and to specification. The reception staff were friendly and helpful,

“Very ordinary, much better available”

Stayed there earlier this year & would not bother again. When we asked for extra towels (the ones supplied are straight out of a discount store, old, tired & thin) we were asked what we wanted them for. The whole place is down at heel, and really does not deserve a three star rating.
