“Disappointing”
+Location
−There was no real kitchen facilities nor laundry facilities at the motel. The bedroom wasn’t air conditioning and didn’t have a fan.

+Close to shops and beaches.
−Bed needs a good clean underneath it. It doesn't look like it has been cleaned underneath for a long time. I accidentally spilt a bit of water on kitchen floor with out realising it and I slipped on small bit of water.

+Location was great
−Should have read the reviews better, completely false advertising of the facility which meant we overpaid for all meals as we couldn’t cook, neighbours smoked at our front door … luckily it was a lovely town

“Average place, average stay”
+The location was great, facilities were fine but overall it's a dated building and some aspects of the room could be updated. The pricing was fair for what you got. Unfortunately other people didn't follow the no smoking rule which made the stay a little uncomfortable.
−Room was a little dated and could be updated.

“We liked Sawtell, but the accommodation was below average.”
+There is nothing that we liked about the property.
−The advertisement for the property is false and misleading as it indicates that there is an oven in the room but there is no oven in the room. The dishes were not clean and we found lipstick marks on the glasses. We also were not able to use the kitchenette to cook because the saucepans that are provided are unusable, they were scratched and pitted. The property advert also said that there is a laundry, washer and dryer at the property, but there is none onsite.

“Sawtell, a step away from Coffs!”
+Great location, only a 100 m stroll to the shops, pub and club and 200m to the beach.
−Nothing really. Appearance is a little low key (?). Meaning, the unit is in what appears formerly to have been a motel, that has since perhaps been strata titled, and the units are now individually owned or let. As such, the internal and external appearance of the unit is budget 3 star perhaps. Not luxury, but eminently comfortable and convenient. If you want well positioned, basic accommodation then Coasters 29 fits the bill for a couple or young family.
