Best location if you’re wanting to stay in the centre of Byron with walking distance to all cafes, restaurant, beach etc. the 2 bedroom room was clean and tidy, beds comfortable, aircon crisp, included kitchenette with fridge and sink, lounge and desk area with parking for your car directly in front of the unit. My only recommendation is including a sign on the bathroom soap to explain you had to squeeze it to dispense, it took us a while to figure it out and concerned people will break the dispenser if you can’t figure it out too.

The bed was saggy and very worn in. The kitchen was ok. I’ve stayed at much classier hotels for less money downtown Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney. The room was clean. The neighbors came in drunk and loud at 2:30am and woke us and our other neighbors. The noise was like they were right in our room. Later on, I could here him through the walls vommitting! I would not recommend this motel to anyone

The beds had sand in them, and the same under the sheets, so this makes me doubt the cleanliness of the rest of the room.

Bathroom could be cleaner and more modern, get shot of the mouldy shower curtain! The room, 9, was obviously converted from a previous reception room and was odd in layout and confusing for guests who came to our door thinking it was the reception. Generally the room needs a good refresh and the photos when booking need to be more accurate to the room.
