Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff are very helpful with accommodating requests and respond quickly. The property is clean and well maintained. Security on-site is excellent. The hotel is centrally located to the business centre of lismore but is quiet. A pleasant park is directly across the road and for a no-fuss quick meal the Lismore Workers Club is a two minute walk away. If you don't want to eat at the club there a many other eating venues within a five minute walk radius. The beds are comfortable and the rooms provide the basic amenities you would expect. Overall I would recommend this as a good choice for any traveller needing a clean, secure and comfortable accommodation whilst in Lismore.
