We stayed at this motel for one night and had a very pleasant experience. The room was clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. The staff were friendly and very responsive, even though we checked in a bit late, which we really appreciated. Overall, it was a good stay and we would be happy to stay here again.

We did not see staff but check-in was easy with instructions remotely. Old school basic motel but clean and new furniture. Perfect for a few nights stay as walkable to central Ballina shops/cafes etc

Friendly, clean and convenient. I have stayed at this motel previously and would do so again. Reception warm and welcoming, room clean and comfortable. The location is within walking distance to restaurants and venues such as the Ballina RSL club which has very good dining facilities and river views. The bed was a little too firm for me but not a real issue.
