Conveniently Located
This quaint and cute accommodation is in a convenient location. It's both close to the highway, but is also close to the beach and other amenities. There are a few restaurants nearby and a café just across the street with very tasty food on offer.

Wonderful Breakfast
The complimentary breakfast is really great, particularly considering the affordable price of the accommodation. There is also a donut cafe across the road, which proves popular with guests.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Tight Parking Spaces
While the guest parking is free, the allocated spaces are pretty tight making it difficult to access and exit the spaces, or open car doors fully. There's also not a huge amount of parking spaces meaning that during peak periods the parking might also get full.
negative:
Noise at Times and Far from Beach
Noise and footsteps from other rooms can be heard at times. Also, while convenient, one of the drawbacks of being so near Highway 5 is that the noise of traffic can get loud and disturb sleep. To access the beach, guests have to walk beyond the highway and it takes around twenty minutes to get to on foot, which some considered too far of a distance.
negative:
Some Amenities not Working
Some guests had issues with the free Wi-Fi not working properly. Others found the cable television didn't function.
