Very nice room with a wonderful view across the Clarence River. Our room was very well appointed and we loved having the coffee machine. The room was clean with a good sized bathroom and a great shower. Our bed was a king size and was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I have ever slept in. We will definitely stay here again when we return to Yamba
