Friendly reception/owner. We had 3 hotel rooms booked in total. All rooms were pleasant, clean and comfortable. Beds were a little on the firm side, but still good. Lighting wasn't the best, but adequate. If management are reading this, Room 8 desperately needs a NEW ceiling fan as one fitted is extremely old, clunky and very noisy, but offers very little airflow. Overall I would definitely recommend this motel to others who want a well positioned, comfortable motel stay in Ballina.
