Our room was on the ground floor picture showed upstairs with balcony, but room was clean and comfortable. Good Shower pressure. Designated car park undercover which is a plus. Awesome Chinese Restaurant next door, good food. Can walk to the RSL for food as well. The only downside was the traffic, which being on the main road was very noisy.

I spent one night in Ballina when my flight was grounded due to storms. Neil and Emma were wonderful hosts, welcoming and kind! The room was spacious, and equipped thoughtfully, with a full set of dishes for two as well as a refrigerator and microwave. The location was convenient to restaurants, and Neil kindly gave me a ride down the street to the pub so I wouldn't have to go out walking in the rainstorm (and lent me an umbrella for the trip back). In short, the inn was nice, and the hospitality was utterly superb!

Our family of 6 only stayed 1 night, but if our travels allowed for us to have more time in Ballina we would have loved to stay longer. The room was spacious and accommodated us comfortably. Close to shops and a variety of dining options within walking distance.
