Lismore City Motor Inn

Room not serviced for five days despite daily complaints. The manager response was vague in saying that he would get someone else tomorrow. No offer to fix the issue today, now or later. Bins not emptied, floor not cleaned from previous guests, room supplies not replaced.

good location bed comfy shower pressure great not real clean my feet were dirty after a shower and could feel dirt on the floor there was tooth paste spashes on the tap and mirror from last people and lots of hair behind the door the garbage bins get rolled down the driveway at crack of dawn and wake you up just dont get the room right on the drive way where we were so for $200 a night i wasnt real impressed

Looking at the photos I thought this motel was not too bad, but my room (deluxe) is nothing like the photos. It is one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. The room was dirty and smelly, every time someone flushed the toilet nearby I could hear a gurgling sound. The bathroom floor has been sealed with black RTV and the door frames are obviously rotten and filled with builders bog. The kitchen shelf / cabinet in the room is from some sort of industrial complex with delaminated plywood covered in a benchtop. There is a coat rack with looks like something from another world. The owner said I made the right decision going for the deluxe room – OMG I would hate to see their standard rooms! Sorry – I cannot think of anything positive to say.

Fantastic room, clean and very comfortable. The Bed was fabulous. Ross on reception was the greatest, he was friendly and really helpful. I would definitely stay here again. Location was excellent walking distance to everything. Real value for money

If I could give 0 stars I would. Feared for our safety. This room looked nothing like the pictures on the website. Under one of the beds the floor was all sunken and the floor moved as you walked on it. Floor was also not level. We did let the guy know about the floor and he blamed the floods 2 years ago. He also didn’t even offer a refund or discount. Not an excuse for lack of safety we literally thought the bed would fall through the floor. All night we were terrified at every sound and creak. We had no other accommodation options available in Lismore so had to stay there. Would have been better off sleeping in the car. As soon as we could we got out of there. Would not recommend or stay here again.

Very basic old school Motel. Our 2nd visit here, two different rooms, both with classic old school balconies. This Motel needs a revamp, the first room we stayed in had an old cracked and pitted bathroom basin which is also where you are expected to do your dishes. No washing up liquid or dish cloth provided, just a tea towel. A very dirty shower curtain that has seen better days. 2nd visit we got a more modern bathroom with a shower door however not one spot to place soap or anything for that matter. Our 2nd room had an air conditioner which leaked constantly, it was my conscience that provided a breakfast bowl to catch the constant dripping and when we went out, I placed a towel on the bed first so the single bed would not be drenched on our return. We were not using the single bed but gut instinct told me that this bedding would not be changed after our exit. This was no small drip, it was constant and heavy. On the day we went out, we left at 5.30pm and arrived home by 9pm. We instantly knew that someone had been in our room as there was an extra towel left on the single bed. I doubt room service would operate during these hours so we figured it was the manager of the Motel, who also obviously is well aware of the leaking air con unit. Love the history of this Motel however we would not stay here again. Lismore has limited Motel accommodation so we were left little choice on our 2nd visit. The sliding glass doors onto the balcony in both rooms were faulty. No wine glasses and all cups and glasses were of different sizes. Microwave only.

Spent a number of nights here, late booking so few choices. As others have said older motor inn and a bit run down, though being older means larger rooms. Unlike others complaints my room was very quite, had a large tv, workable wifi, and modern clean bathroom and good shower. Walk to CBD and has a laundry. Only complaints was mattress could do with replacing and aircon struggled with summer heat, but got there eventually at night. Was fine for a few nights.

Comfortable and well furnished apartment for family. Really appreciated the air conditioning, furniture, comfy beds and clean facilities. It even had a fully decked out mini kitchen. We didn’t need that or the pool, but if we were there any longer that would’ve been a great add-on. Thank you so much for providing us great accommodation at a reasonable price on our long journey.

I purchased a "deluxe" room after finding this place online. I wouldn't exactly call it deluxe though. The room was reached by a set of stairs and some very wonky back corridors that led to a seperate building from the main motel. The accommodation consisted of two bedrooms that were linked by a central bathroom. On entry you were led into the second bedroom that contained a single bed, couch, tv and fridge. You couldn't get into the main bedroom without going through the strange multi-level bathroom that included a barn door, a toilet on a podium and a shower in a cupboard. There was no operable, lockable door on the bathroom which was embarrassing as I had my two teenage kids with me. The main bedroom had no tv which was very confusing, which meant I had to go and hang out in the single room. Despite these quirks everything was clean and functional and the beds were comfy. What REALLY undid this place were what appeared to be semi- permanent locals who were obviously being accommodated post floods. Throughout the night there was partying and drunken brawling happening in the central courtyard until 5am. It was sad, but we all felt really unsafe. I was naive in thinking it would be good to visit Lismore to help the town recover, and I won't be back, like ever.
