Great location but unfortunately the motel is terribly run down and in desperate need of renovation. My room was extremely musty smelling, and the carpet was old and smelly - you will want to keep your shoes on while in the room. The bathroom was tiny and unkempt. The air conditioner did not work. The rooms are not a place you want to spend any time in. It's a real shame this once iconic motel in such a dire state. Staff were pleasent to deal with.

Affordable accommodation in outstanding location

Modest and comfortable motel in the heart of Eden. Directly on Main Street so a short walk to cafes, antique stores and bars. Also, just a short (200m) stroll to the main beach which was amazing. Saw a large pod of dolphins swimming 50m from our family which was amazing!

We booked and paid for one night through wotif.com at $155 a night but as we were going to be in Eden earlier than expected we rang to book another night and we were charged $265 for the extra night. I was extremely disappointed with the condition of the motel as it was very rundown and did not seem to have had any maintenance done in a very long time. The bathroom had mould and the room smelt old and dirty. I feel that for over $400 for the 2 nights we were taken advantage of. Would not recommend this motel to anyone else.

This 'hotel' is very run down and shabby. Poorly maintained, false advertising about the pool and facilities. The pictures on numerous websites are very old and not up to date. The BBQ area is filthy.

Pretty awful property. Not updated since the 70s. Ready to be knocked down. Only thing going for it is location. Great pub just up the street.
