Good spot for an overnight stop, negating the need to travel all the way into to Ballina/

The room and bedding were very clean and comfortable. Basic necessities are supplied. If I was going to do more than an overnight stop I would make sure I had washing up liquid for the dishes. Has air-con, fridge, microwave, tv, two comfortable chairs with a side table. Handy servo next door for fresh fruit and food.
− It is on the main road out of Ballina, so the traffic is pretty consistent, but of course that dies down when it is nighttime and the people are sleeping.
