I liked the friendly staff, comfortable bed, own ensuite, allocated a ground floor room to stay in, rear access option, undercover car space & open car space if they were full. Low Budget accommodation that families and pensioners could possibly afford. I didn't like being on a noisy main road however of a night with not much traffic this allowed some sleep.

Room number 1 is closest to River Road, which does get noisy. I would stay here again, provided the room is away from the road.

Room was ok, clean and tidy. Parking was a bit of a challenge, not many car parks available and some selfish clown with a 4wd truck and caravan parked in my spot as well!

We were pleasant surprised by the room as it was a last minute booking and the room was cheap. The room was small but beautifully updated and amazingly clean! No front desk so didn’t deal with staff. A very quiet place to sleep too and comfortable bed. Would stay here again for sure.

Contactless checkin which was ok but would have preferred a person to talk to. No one in the office if there was an issue on checkin or checkout. Otherwise it was a good renovated motel close to town.

Property is in a good location close to shops ,but is very dated ,stayed in downstairs room with brick walls with a bit of white paint splashed on them also a large steel beam stuck out of the ceiling also TV pointed in a strange direction . It was a last minute decision to stay in Ballina and this was the cheapest property It was clean and served the purpose for the night
