This property has received an excellent makeover since the 2017 flood and offers excellent value in a central location. Unlike many Lismore CBD motels, all rooms are ground floor. Both times I’ve stayed here I’ve been allocated a lovely two-room suite with everything I need.

I booked on line and booked a twin room that I thought contained a twin bed and a queen bed it turned out to be a single and a queen, however beds and pillows were very comfortable, I had a great sleep and the whole unit was the cleanest I have ever stay in.

Brand new refurbed rooms are awesome and really spacious . The welcome and service was really nice as well unlike another motel that claims to be a 4 star...... It was a really hot day when we arrived and they had the air con going for us already which was good because we had to shower change and go straight out again. We didnt eat anything there but the menu looked pretty decent. We we’re upgraded to a family room which has a lounge room with a single bed and double sofa bed and the bedroom. Both rooms have a tv in them and a jack and Jill bathroom in the middle. This place will be our first choice in Lismore from now on.

Nice little place
There was a bit of a mix up with the rooms that were booked verses what we were given. We were able to change 1 room and paid extra. A bit disappointing considering I had rung ahead and asked which room I should book. Studio rooms are very small. Pictures on web site are old and look completely different.

New and clean
My stay was quick, but very nice. The rooms are comfortable, clean and new. Check in was easy. And it was pretty quiet. The pool looked inviting, but I didn’t have a chance to get in. I know it’s a motor in, but I didn’t have a car lol. So food options nearby aren’t great. With a car I’m sure it’s fine.

Everything you need including cutlery and plates in a newly renovated space. Was very grateful for the well priced minibar, the champagne was lovely after a busy week! I have a lot of luggage, so just a little tight on storage space. Will stay here again!
