Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    The staff are friendly. Accommodation clean and very convenient. Very quiet even though next to the busy road. Have stayed in this Motel before and very happy with it. Could just be updated a little. But no other suggestions

    Room very modern furnished and very clean. Bed comfy and great shower! Staff were very accommodating with any requests we had (an additional blanket). Motel was very central to town and walking distance to most venues.

    What a perfect little motel. The room was extremely clean and spacious for a small family. Beds are very comfy and enough extra pillows supplied. The shower was absolutely fantastic, fast flowing hot water. Plenty of coffee tea provided and the staff are extremely friendly. Will definitely book there again when visiting Ballina.

    Kitchen facilities, sink in a motel unit a bonus. Plates, glasses and cutlery (we had to ask for plates at previous motel) Clean and spacious. Table and couch. Souvenired the "Crap" toilet roll. Thanks for the sentiment

    I love this motel. I’ve been going there on and off for years. The previous owner had a fabulous flair for interior decorating which makes this motel so homely and rather luxurious compared to most of the dull and soulless motels around. The rooms are a great size and have everything you need. Highly recommended.
