Disliked: Staff & service
The door had no lock only the insect screen locked which is not safe. The lamp had an electrical short which is dangerous. The lights went didn’t seem to care about any of this at all. I would never stay here again.
Large comfortable room with all the necessary facilities and very close walking distance to Byron Bay's main street. Back gate access to the beach and a nice pool as a bonus.
Clean room, well maintained, right next to town center

Great location
This hotel offers great location. 100m to great beach and a 2 minute walk in to Main Street all with the convenience of onsite parking. Room was a good size with all the normal appliances expected. On site pool was nice with bbq if required. I really liked the look of the outside of the hotel which was of a manor style. Would highly recommend this property.
We loved our stay here - biggest benefit is proximity to town and the beach. Loved it.
If mattresses and curtains were replaced/upgraded this place would be perfect!
Nice and clean.
This property is so close to everything, parking out front of ground floor unit. Park car and forget, walk to town. Staff very friendly and extremely helpful. Would stay again
Great little spot, our family room was clean & comfortable (despite being dated, which I had anticipated), staff were really friendly and such a convenient location - very short walk to the beach and centre of town.
