My son and I stayed for one night as he was attending the North Coast PSSA Athletics Trials that was being held in Lismore. Our room was very satisfactory for a night. It was clean and had everything we needed. The linen was extremely clean . The man with the beard at reception was very nice. We had a lovely stay.

Expedia details for this property suggest there is: a bar, a restaurant and room service. None of these features exist and something I was hoping to make use of. Expedia's rating is 8.4, very good. I think that rating is extremely generous, and I would suggest a rating reflecting Average to Poor. Good points: There was a bed. It was clean. Very disappointed overall.

For the price, it was clean and comfortable. The room was fronting the road and noisy from traffic. There appeared to be rooms away from the road though.

My plane landed early so arrived earlier than 2pm. They saw me standing in cold with my luggages infront if the reception for 1 hour but did not check me in until after 2pm. The room was dirty and the cleaning lady asked me if i would want her to mop the floor of the room. I became speechless.

I’d give this place a miss
Kitchen cupboard door lop sided and did not close properly. Toilet seat completely detached and side off. No milk in fridge had to request 3 times before finally given some. Reception staff acted like guests were an inconvenience. On bright side very clean and fresh linen

For the price we paid we were disappointed with our room - the room smelt damp - the bathroom was mouldy - the shower head wldnt stay upright - and no extra blanket or pillow - only one cup was supplied so had to take it in turns to have a hot drink - this place needs a makeover

After dealing with water entering our room from a storm on the first night, the manager upgraded us to another room for the second night. We also received a refund for our accommodation. Needless to say we were totally satisfied with the outcome.

First of all was greeted poorly, we checked in approximately 7:45, 15mins prior to closing time. We had booked for 3 people, 2 adults and 1 Child (9) the room was fitted with 2 towels and only a double bed. Pool needed to be tended too, it was very cloudy, and a small shade of green. Mould in the grout lines of the bathroom, cracked shower screen. The facilities in the room were great, had toaster, kettle, microwave, fridge, tea, coffee,sugar, milk and biscuits. We decided to stay in Lismore to help and support a rebuilding community, however these are issues that could be rectified easily.

Morning Ross (I think that’s your name) the only thing I’d like to let you know that the double bed in room 108 where we stayed the bed might be broken as every time I moved in it it made a clonking noise and I thought it was going to collapse on me . Lmao I will be staying at your motel every time I come up to Lismore and I hope we will get the same room as I enjoyed it all there. Thankyou Margaret Salter

Average stay 6/10.
Property still under repair from floods so understand it’s not up to standard as yet. The deluxe room whilst big in size was not as new as photos shown, & in need of a deep clean. Room smelt of cigarettes & smokers in rooms nearby. No window shade in the toilet was off putting with view of neighbors opposite. Steps only to access upper levels. Limited parking in complex but street parking available. Quiet street , average 3star motor inn, overpriced but they do need the support. Limited options in the area as flood recovery is ongoing.
