Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Would not recommend this place at all! Black mould found in the room we paid for! It stunk and had cockroaches. We addressed it with management who also turned up filthy and stunk of nicotine which did not help the situation. Fearing the safety of my family I had to look elsewhere later in the evening. Management were not accommodating to providing us with other options for the night so we left! I would not recommend this place to anyone! Stay away! Bomb the place, for bugs and/or management.

Not enough parking spots for the amount of rooms. They also use parking spots to store linen trolleys meaning I couldn't even reverse my 4WD into the only remaining spot, as there was no room to swing around. Plenty of room for the electric charging cars. Room and outside rooms also had strong sewer smell in the bathroom.

This is an excellent Hotel. At the moment there are renovations and updates being done. It is still quiet and this process is not interfering with clients.

My wife and I were very impressed with the cleanliness and facilities available at Oceanside. The bed was comfortable, the bathrooms were fine and my daughter loved having a swim in the pool. Couldn’t ask for much more from a cheap single room. Although simple, very happy with our stay.

Hmmmm
Easy check in. Air con wasn’t adjustable Shower head position wasn’t well thought out. Can’t turn the shower on before you get in and close the door. Very cramped. No power or lighting until you put the card in. Very hard to be able to navigate where to put the card in pitch blackness.

Loved the open feel of the hotel, however the pool was closed for our 8 day stay, which was dissapoiting as the pool was the reason we booked the hotel and there was no advanced notice that the pool would be closed, therefore left disappointed, however it was a nice hotel

Our room was comfortable & contained everything we needed. It was good to have on-site dinner & breakfast available. The MAJOR BONUS for us was the EV charging available on-site (currently free for customers & suitable for non-tesla EVs) - very much appreciated. We would definitely stay here again.😊

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was well appointed however there were a few issues to mention: 1) The bathroom door handle came off and was not installed properly (Poor quality workmanship). 2) The TV remote was not working properly, and I could not lower the volume (no physical button on the TV either) and there was no way you can turn the TV off with the bright white screen staying on (you have to turn off the switch at the power point). 3) TV reception was horrible and all channels were freezing constantly. 4) The shower was very powerful and the spout sprays water outside the tub. 5) There is no room service on a Sunday. I asked for my room to be made up and the cleaning staff said no. They did give me a fresh set of towels. 6) The pictures on Wotif are deceiving. There are no push bikes to use nor is there a courtesy bus available. If you don't have your own car, then you will have to walk 30 minutes to the CBD or hire an e-scooter or Uber or Taxi.
