Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was my first time in Lismore for business and I was pleasantly surprised at the range of facilities the Motel offered as well as it's central location. The room I was in was quiet and peaceful and having the car parking facility outside the front door was fantastic. The staff were attentive and friendly and only too happy to help out when needed. Definitely would recommend!

Staff are friendly and more than eager to help. The motel is located in a great location, only minutes from the CBD, Lismore Square and many food outlets.
Rooms are clean and comfortable.
Ballina is only a half hour drive away.

It was great to see this Hotel still in business after the great floods of last year. With all the buildings nearby, vacant and considerably flood damage, it was good to see this hotel in operation. It’s well located, walking distance from the centre of Lismore. It was a very large room. The bed was reasonably comfortable and the room was cool by small, reverse cycle air-conditioner. The air-conditioner did struggle in the humidity. The bathroom didn’t have any natural light and the shower was contained within an alcove. Water pressure was just adequate. The room was relatively dimly lit with only two low wattage globes in fittings on the roof. The small bar fridge operated well and kept our items very cool. Parking at this hotel is difficult to move into so take your time and use your reversing camera carefully. All in all, a fair to good hotel.

Room Tip: Be careful car parking your car. The spots are very tight and awkwardly positioned.

We stayed for 7 days, Ulysses Rally. The positives - walking distance to CBD, park motorbike at door, large room, comfortable bed. Negatives - the new manager told us on book in the room would be serviced by girls daily! Bed made once , sheets changed once {I'm ok with that}, we had to ask for clean towels each day as they did not dry overnight. Bins were not emptied every day, but needed to be. No housekeeping at all on Sat & Sun, we were not told this at book-in. Toilet paper very low by Sunday night, no clean replacement of glasses, plates & cutlery after Friday morning. Toilet was filling continuously from Friday night until we left Monday morning. Craig was not to be seen or contacted by phone all day Saturday & did not respond to messages or answer office door. Very disappointed with the hospitality & housekeeping. After talking to Tradies staying there this appears to be the normal. I do not recommend this motel.

Everything was clean and well set out. The location of the motel was perfect for walking to the shops for food.

The beds were comfortable. And the room was warm.

We required extra toilet paper and the staff were quite easy to find to ask.

Loved the animals at the property too.

It was a great room very spacious, catered to my needs.Wanting a quieter room at the back of the property.Nice architecture and simple decor.Outside could hear the birds singing . Outside a little hard to park elavated on a slope parallel parking to the property.
Practical , mini fridge was quiet , a round table with chairs to have takeaway dinner and all utensils handy. Bed was comfortable , good subtle lighting. For some reason my room didn't have an airconditioner/ heater remote. Mentioned it at checkout to the owner, so was a cold night. The blanket was a bit light and not warm enough. Sheets were crispy and large. Otherwise bathroom was a good size and warm water straight away. No lock on the inside of the door, but has a outside lock. Good location on a roundabout. Lismore is a beautiful suburb with great restaurants. Easy to navigate the motel was a budget price in a nice area.

Only stayed here once for a single night but the check in process was fast and friendly, the off-street parking was appreciated and it's all within a few blocks of Lismore CBD.

My room was spotless, laid out nicely with simple yet functional features and heaps of space. I had one of the spa rooms - mainly by accident as it was one of the few rooms available when I booked - and everything about the place had an air of quiet efficiency.

Price quite reasonable too.

I was impressed! the service was great and the room was very clean. Sometime the small things make a big impression, for me it was cold water in the fridge, a biscuit and tea and coffee. After traveling along way after hours and getting in late the bed was also very comfortable. Our stay was very comfortable.

The room was spacious and well appointed. Bed comfortable and bed sheets crispy clean along with thick bath towels. This motel is quiet even though it is situated on the main arterial road to Ballina. Reasonably priced. Microwave, kettle and cutlery, plates etc included. Under new friendly management

This motel has the most terrible WiFi known to man. I struggled several times every evening to connect to the WiFi throughout our whole stay. Even after multiple trips to reception most nights and numerous promises of the WiFi issue being fixed the next day it was not.
