We booked this as part of a Groupon deal and we paid about $360 for 3 nights accommodation in a hotel-style room + a free dolphin watching cruise. The deal was great value as the location was great (really close to the main street and marina) and the dolphin cruise was good fun. However, there's not a lot of night life going on in Nelson Bay and as such we would head back to our room after dinner and a few drinks, and it would have been good to have a lovely room to go back to. The bed was comfortable and the room was quite well equipped with a toaster, kettle and small fridge. Probably the only grip we had was that the tv was very small and we didn't have a balcony. It was fine this time around but next time we'd go for an upgrade or choose one of the serviced apartments that have balconies and views of the water.
