Appears to be under new management since last stayed there. Rooms have had a makeover and is a vast improvement on how it used to be for both quality and customer service.

Central Jetty Motel is cheaply priced and was in a convenient location for us. Quiet enough even though close to busy road. Spacious room, free upgrade for a ground floor room. The room smelled musty, possibly from smokers - permanent ashtrays are just outside each room.

No dish soap, dishcloth, scourer or t-towel provided; no plug for kitchen sink; cups dirty on our arrival! Fortunately, we brought our own! Minimal utensils and extras, eg: coffee, tea, milk, sugar. Broken rails in fridge door meant less space for drinks.

Receptionist was curt and abrupt. With me being an exhausted 67yr old after a big day of driving, she just glared at me when I accidentally handed her my debit card instead of my driver's licence! 😔 The only smile we received was when I asked her name and she said it is pronounced Winnie, like Winnie the Pooh. ☺️

*Safety alert: Outside our room(and I presume each room) are multiple power points way up high on an iron girder. Rain was dripping down through them!!! Some were turned on!!! We left a note for housekeeping to pass on to admin.

We might stay there again, but only for close proximity to family, but more likely to stay at Gosford Inn Motel at Narrara.

We were able to check in early which was great but after that staff were not available. We came back to our rooms to find we had no bath towels or bath mat and left a message on the number provided but no response or supply of towels. There wasn’t even a box of tissues in the room.

Horrible outdated rooms. The downstairs of the motel has many permanent residents who have junk all over the place. Horrible bed on wheels. Old linen and pillows. Not clean. I would never suggest this motel to anyone. I had an issue with TV. Owner did not speak English. Another person said ‘I don’t work here’ when they were sitting in hotel desk. Green unswimmable pool. Very untidy grounds with junk everywhere. Very old motel. Quite dilapidated.

Booked on the morning of as it was the only place offering accommodation for 5 in 1 room.. you get what you pay for basically, it isn’t the Ritz or the most modern place but it suited our needs & my 2 grandkids were thrilled to be in a bunk bed for the first time 😂😂😂that was cute. I had an issue with my key on the 2nd day but they fixed it quick smart, the young lady at the front counter was pleasant enough & even offered a smile when I was checking in. Thank you!

The property is dirty inside and out- unmaintained and not cleaned properly. There was a used bar of soap in the shower, broken fixtures and mouldy water damaged door. The room smelt of cigarette smoke and we later discovered the resident on the upper floor was smoking and ashy water was dripping onto the entry of our room. We arrived late after a very long drive so basically ate, slept and got out of there to continue our travel. For the price and location, I was very disappointed.

Just a weekend away with my daughter

Look the room was relatively clean. The gardens are so overgrown and not inviting. Also the pool was not clean. I wouldn't put my head under - grit all over the bottom of the pool. Well the reception area was a disgrace and the signage for the hotel must be at least 30 years old. I wouldn't stay here again.

The room smelt like vomit when we arrived (and still when we left after spraying multiple things in the room and leaving doors/windows open). The owner sprayed some Glen 20 and didn't say anything.

There were no hand towels, no tea towels, a cut in half dish cloth, no tea spoons, no tissues. It was dirty and not somewhere I would ever stay again even for a cheaper price. It's a very run down place.

The room we had was good with plenty of space and the beds were comfortable. There was a microwave, toaster, jug, plates, bowls, mugs, glasses and cutlery - except there was no teaspoons. The bathroom had support rails around the toilet and a collapsible seat in the shower, ideal for disabled or older people. There was no plug in the sink. There was no wash-up cloth, tea-towels, hand towels or face-washers. The Office was closed so we couldn't request these items. We left a note listing these items as being essential, especially the sink plug. We enjoyed our stay at this Motel and would go there again when in the area.

Upon arrival things seemed fine, front desk service was friendly and room appeared clean. After we returned from the beach we noticed the cupboard doors in the kitchenette and on the vanity were falling off and both had nasty water stains inside. The pool area was unclean and the deck was old and rotting. We ran out of toilet paper (only two small rolls supplied) and when I went to reception to ask for more the fellow didn't understand English and offered me a broom! The people in the room above yelled all night so we got no sleep. We couldn't stay another night so we checked out early and lost money.

We felt very comfortable, not watched or disturbed, like the place was our home. Yet, the staff were always available, if we needed them. Well done to the staff!!

Disappointing that customers pay hard earnt money to stay in such accommodation. The customer service was terrible. That they cannot be bothered to patch and paint rotting wood is appalling.

Extremely run down, poor quality rooms that also smell very musty and old. Listed as “renovations may be occurring” but that is just an excuse for the poor state of the place. I knew that the photos showed it wasn’t the flashiest place but I chose it as it was a flying trip and it was close by to where I needed to go but I didn’t expect what it was. Definitely won’t be going there again.
