Great room & service
Were given a big QS room, room 1 on the back verandah. Check in quick, efficient, friendly. Room clean, good condition, great bathroom with nice brand shampoo, conditioner & wash. Good quality nice smelling towels and a very comfortable bed. Coffee, tea, milk, sugar & cookies provided. A little noise from downstairs till about 21.00 hrs but after that so quiet. Staying on a Sunday might be different from Friday night though.... Great price for a great room close to everything. Will stay again

A very comfortable and clean room. Surprisingly quiet despite pub music playing and situated on a main road. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely be my choice for accomodation in Forster again.

The room presents well with a nice bathroom, however the aircon was set to a low thermostat and came on intermittently, when the room temperature was about 15 degrees cold. No doona or blanket so it was freezing and unpleasant.
