Very good

Nice by the water, listen to music , relax and meters from your bed. Easy walking to early morning cafe for coffee and breakfast and get some prawns. Loved it.
The room had cockroaches. Room floor buckled, uneven, and a trip hazard, we tripped on a raised joint on the floor boards. No hair dryer or microwave, no glasses in room for water, only 2 cups, onl 1 teabag, very poor for the price. Waited 1/2 hour to find someone to check us in.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
There was no cutlery or crockery or hairdryer or toasterl so couldn’t make our own breakfast or cut fruit. A live band played near our room and was so loud wouldn’t stay again
The Tea Gardens motel is a great pkace to stay. They had nice sizeable rooms for the price I paid. There was a childrens playground in the centre area, which makes it great for families. The dining options are big considering thete is a restaurant at the motel, and other restaurants in the area.
The bay outside the motel is just across the road, and provides a nice view when you are outside. The atmosphere is very welcoming and you feel comfortable staying here.
We have stayed at Tea Gardens Hotel several times and the beds are comfortable, the rooms are clean and the staff are efficient, pleasant and helpful. The dining options are very good with generous portions and great service. Highly recommended.

The accommodation was good but would not recommend staying on a Saturday night the live band was very noisy and when it ended at about 10.30pm the guests were even noisier. Apart from that it was a nice place to stay.
