Welcome at reception, with good advice about dining options. Newly refurbished room. Spotless, plenty of space, big bathroom, lots of hot water, comfortable bed. Amenities were great, including hot chocolate. Amazingly quiet, considering the location. Couldn't hear the highway at all. New microwave, jug and toaster. Excellent value for the money.

We are family with young kids and had a great stay at Palm Valley Motel. The room was newly renovated, clean, with nice hot shower and all amenities that we needed for our stay for a few days at an effortable price. We also liked the outdoor pool. It is at a quiet location, we couldn't hear anything from our neighbours so we could rest well. The location is close to Newcastle and not far from Port Stephens. Thank you!

Everything pretty much as expected, can't complain about anything. Just one suggestion perhaps; Maybe put some draft strips around the front door, to stop the light (and the drafts) coming in.

The pool is shared dont be fooled to think you have your own private pool in the back as per the photographs. Rooms are small and there was a bushfire we had to leave early because the smoke was too much and too clostophobic inside.

Great value for money for quick rest. A bit noisy neighbours. They should have a sign to be respectful to other people. Walls are thin but then based on price and what I am getting: clean room, bed, fridge, microwave oven, warm shower. I forgot there’s a mini pool for the kids too.

The fumes in the room from either a bug bomb or concentrated cleaner meant my daughter and I ended up sleeping in the car. Reception staff were pleasant but definitely would not stay here nor recommend it. So many bugs inside.
