Everything was amazing, staff is really friendly and helpfull. Parking was perfect, try to buy coffee from the Lil Nel Cafe, it was really good.
Just the toilet smelled little bit like sewer pipe, maybe the air circulation wasn’t good enough

The good thing is that the property is close to Nelson Bay. The amenities could be better. The bathroom did not have hot water which came as a surprise and this I realised after turning onbthe shower.

The hotel is good, stayed there once before. This time the mattresses were very not as good as last time, I was sinking in. The biggest let down was the Tesla charging. Last time I was charged $10, which was reasonable and the reason I stayed in this hotel again while visiting Nelson bay. This time I was charged $20! Apparently "the price went up few weeks ago" according to staff, but it didn't go up just few percent but doubled in price.. This was very disappointing..

Clean and tidy.
Short walking distance to shops, restaurants, cafes and the beach.
Heated pool that would be nice when it's too cold to swim at the beach.
Would stay again.
