Nobody at reception. Did not receive an emailed entry code. Took a long distance overseas phone call from my cell phone to find out how to enter our room. Room was sold as “ocean view”. The only one who had an ocean view was my car in the parking lot. No ocean view from our windows.

Has bad experience with the last at the concierge who asked for our Credit Card details and was arguing inspite of the entire trio was paid upfront via Expedia. She was also very curious to know who all will be staying and can I show those individuals to them etc. I'm surely going to avoid booking this property in future.

Basic good for one night stop

Basic motel, clean great bed. Next unit guests smoking and talking until 1 am so we could not open the window. Taps in bathroom sink were closed so tight we could not open, they were fixed next day, but licked a bit. This motel is at the top of a steep hill so for us ok but not for all to walk to from town. Merimbula lacks food options all close very early and seem they do not want visitors. I was not comfortable er seemed to be an inconvenience for locas, I will avoid stoping there again.

My stay at the Ocean View Motor Inn was excellent. Unfortunately it was only for one night to catch up with friends. I woukd have liked to stay for a longer period as the bed was very comforyable, the block out curtains definately did the job, showers hot with plentiful water, breakfast fantastic and the management were polite, professional and very obliging. I would definately be more than happy to stay again at this truly comfortable motor inn.
