Our family studio apartment was well-appointed with everything we needed for a comfortable weekend stay. Our beds were very comfortable, and the linen & towels immaculate. The convenience of the location on River Street (the main street of Ballina) provided easy walking-distance access to shops, cafes, restaurants & supermarkets.

Some of the skirting boards and the toilet and bathroom doors were a bit grimey - but nothing a firm wipe over wouldn't fix. This wouldn't stop us staying again, but it's correction would show excellent attention to detail.

The fact that this wonderfully pleasing to the eye establishment is based on the main Street, River Street, in Ballina and perfectly positioned directly opposite Ballina's entertainment centre, the Ballina RSL, meant that it was just a very short hop, skip and a jump to the welcoming doors of the Ballina RSL where breakfast, lunch, dinner and entertainment were completely at your service. With the mighty Richmond River ever so close to the motel that supports a lovely boardwalk and footpath that hugs the river's edge for kilometers, whether you are walking freely on a motorised scooter or push bike, this is an incredible way to explore Ballina. Aside from all of the sightseeing compliments, the room itself was well equipped with microwave oven and coffee/tea making facilities with complimentary yummy tasting, packeted cookies. The room was super clean and dust free. The beds were super comfy and dressed in fresh smelling and feeling linen.

There is nothing that I can say that I did not like.

We are a young family of four. The attention to detail was excellent. The beds were extremely comfortable, the room immaculate and the staff very attentive. The tv was large and good quality, everything worked as you’d hope for.

Its location isn’t perfect if you’re visiting for a beach holiday, but it’s close enough to walk to shops and facilities otherwise. And it’s close to the highway which makes it a very convenient place for a quick stop over.

The room was clean, spacious and well equipped. Good location on the main street, easy to find the motel, easy self check-in after hours.

The parking spaces are quite narrow and we couldn't get our vehicle in due to other cars parked over their lines, so we parked on the street. I know other customers said they liked the beds, but for us, the beds were too soft. The second bedroom didn't have air conditioning and it didn't cool down enough from the air going in from the main room.

Although it was a little dated, the facilities were good. Plenty of room on the vanity for makeup, toiletries etc. shower was good. Table and chairs for breakfast. Location was great.

The only thing we could fault with this property was it needed a door between the bedroom and the vanity area for privacy and so as not to disturb anyone if you had to turn the light on during the night.

I have stayed here in numerous occasions and as such know it well. It is a quality hotel at a good price . The staff are excellent, the place is clean and tidy and has enough room to feel very comfortable.

The only issue I have is that the Media system needs updating to include access to Apps such as Stan, YouTube and the like.

Our room was immaculately clean. Queen bed extremely comfortable. Variety of pillows (soft to firm). Lovely spacious bathroom. Location close to the river, shops and RSL was ideal. Stayed for 3 nights and had a very enjoyable and comfortable stay. Will definitely stay here again when in Ballina.

Cannot fault anything.

Lovely and clean property in a fantastic location right across from Ballina RSL Club. The lady on reception(the owner I think) was really friendly and made sure we had some soy milk in our room for coffee as we don’t drinks cows milk. We loved the big spa bath that we could both fit in.

The rooms are a little dated but I’d stay here again.

Easy check in, friendly helpful owners. Older style hotel but very comfortable and spotless. Very comfortable bed and quiet location. Added bonus a window for fresh air and 10/10 location, straight across the road from the RSL where we enjoyed happy hour and fresh Ballina prawns. Great car park too.

Nothing

Staff very nice and helpful. The location is very convenient as it’s in a Main Street. so it’s 5 minutes to walk to Ballina RSL , shops , cafes and the river to watch the boats , the bird life and people fishing.
