I've returned to this place time and again, and it never disappoints. The rooms are generously sized and immaculately clean, the beds offer exceptional comfort, and the staff consistently deliver courteous, professional service. Situated in a walkable location to many cafes and restaurants. My upstairs room overlooked the river; which is a great sight to greet you. I highly recommend this property.

Overnight stay in Ballina

Clean and probably better than the usual motel. Strange things were that there was a washbasin outside the bathroom and there was a noxious smell in the bathroom most of the time. Otherwise tea and coffee facilities were good and plenty of space in the room

Fabulous hosts who offered trusted local advice and options. Clean and tidy property that will get 5 stars when upgrades are made to the bed, the noise insulation and the wifi. Everything else was great and it is a serious contender for our next stopoverin Ballina.

Love staying here, on the edge of the main street, making everything in walking distance - bar beaches. Opposite 1 of the best RSL's in Australia that I have been too as a bonus. Being a historical building has a better ambience then a generic modern hotel and the staff are great. There are stairs only to the 2nd level so if you cannot do stairs, let the hotel know before staying.
