I had a fantastic stay at Manly Marina Cove Motel. the spacious rooms were spotlessly clean and came with a lovely balcony. The location was fabulous, close to the serene waters, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. I appreciated the easy parking and the nearby dining options. though I did wish breakfast lasted a bit longer.

My stay at Manly Marina Cove Motel was enjoyable overall. The location was peaceful and close to the yacht squadron, though I did find it a bit challenging to get around without a car. The room was clean and comfortable, but I did wish for better ventilation options without attracting mosquitoes.

The room was clean and spacious, but I noticed a funky motel smell. While the bed was decent, the lack of a bath mat felt a bit unsafe. The family room's layout was nice, but the TV was too big for the space.

Breakfast was a bit of a letdown and overpriced for the limited selection. I suggest looking for local cafes instead for better options.

My stay at Manly Marina Cove Motel was quite enjoyable overall, with clean rooms and a fantastic location. The staff were friendly and helped make my experience pleasant. However, I did notice the room was a bit basic compared to the price, and the air conditioning could use some attention. But the proximity to cafes and the scenic walks nearby really made up for it.

The room I had was spacious and very clean, though it did have a basic motel feel. I appreciated the balcony, which offered a nice space to relax, but the view was limited in my case since it faced the car park. Overall, the comfort was good, and I slept well at night.

While the dining options were limited, the breakfast was decent when it was available. I wish the breakfast hours were a bit more relaxed, especially when on vacation, but I could still find nearby places to eat.

The facilities were adequate, with housekeeping doing a solid job and having options for laundry. I appreciated the well-maintained gardens and walking areas, which added to the relaxing atmosphere. It would've been nice to have access to the pool, but the offer to swim at the community pool was generous.
