Dirty carpet and chairs. Musty smell in room . Stains on hand towel. No door to bathroom. Holes in curtains. Fibro in window in place of glass panel. Electrical cable sticking out of wall in partly renovated bathroom. dirty coffee cup. No fly screen on only opening window and blinds that would not go up or down. Rusty rubbish bin. Not worth $170 dollars - we won’t be back

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.

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.
