Bega Southtown Motor Inn

Lovely ladies run this place, very helpful and generous with the little packs of bikkies! Salt water pool, though small, was enough to cool off in on a hot day. However the mattress was way too firm for me so I didn't sleep, but my husband had no such complaints. The sofa was too low and uncomfortable to sit on too. There were no light blocking curtains or blinds so too much light coming into the room at night. Not much sound dampening either so noisy neighbours can be heard. However, we've stayed a couple of times now while visiting relatives and would do so again. I just take an eye mask, earplugs and mattress topper. Why? Because you get what you pay for and for budget motels, it's pretty good. It's only a short drive into town for good food, it's close to the hospital and to my relatives. The cheapest petrol in town is a block away, and it's close to the highway without going through town, so if you're exploring the coast you've got a good start. A couple of rooms I think have flat doorways from the parking space, for mobility access. No views to speak of. No breakfast but kitchenette if needed. Go to cafe evolve or the red cafe for breakfast and the pearl Chinese restaurant for dinner - they also do excellent fish and chips and other Aussie meals. So this place has all you need. Definitely give it a try.

All good

Staff were friendly, check in easy, facilities clean, comfortable and with all you'd expect. Not close enough to town to walk, but 2-3 mins drive, closer to hospital. Met our needs, happy to stay again and to recommend. NB: NOT wheelchair accessible.

Sadly the bathroom badly needs a renovation- it is very small - & very outdated, cold & draughty - a shower curtain certainly doesn't add to the amenities. Sign at reception said open from 7.30am to 9.00pm, but on checking out at 9.45am the door was locked. There was a box for key returns, but we were going to return the $10 note found in the garden next to our car - but no-one to give it to unfortunately.
