Stayed for 3 nights in a family room. Clean, comfortable and conveniently located accommodation base to explore the Ballina region. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom was large, modern and clean. The caravan out the front serving barrista coffee and bacon and egg rolls was a welcome bonus - definitely recommend!

Great location and friendly staff. The carpark can be a little tight depending upon the type of car / truck you have and height can be an issue.
