"A cool retro hotel close to the heart of Ballina. Room was super clean and very comfortable. It was nice to sit in the afternoon sun on the sunloungers on the grass...we did both afternoons with a glass of wine. The host suggested a French restaurant in the town centre which was also fantastic. The Wharf restaurant is also a must do We enjoyed our stay in Ballina.
