Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Affordable, simple and straightforward motel-type accommodation with a touch of comfort and congeniality in the heart of Phillip Island; property is a short drive to the Esplanade, the Penguin Parade, Churchill Island and other places of interest on the island; Pauline welcomed us warmly and facilitated a stress-free check-in; clean and spacious queen room with spa bath; basic amenities but provided in abundance including fresh towels on a daily basis; we enjoyed our 3 nights stay; I will stay here again if I am on the island again in the future!

Disliked: Amenities
This was the worst of a number of properties we have stayed at in Phillip Island. The Hosts on arrival did not show us how to access power or wi fi codes or wish us a nice stay. The reception area supposed to be open 9 to 5 pm but was constantly shut during these times. The most annoying thing however was the water pressure for showers in dribbles out only have never seen as bad. I have never given a review before and due to lack of being able to have a shower we actually left a day early. All our friends will be made aware of our experience. Regards Steve Richards
