The staff.
Bathrooms could be cleaned more often.
The atmosphere. Definitely gives a taste of the old Byron Bay.
Loud, rude guests who had no consideration for quiet hours.
The art work, little different always makes me smile!
Nous n’avons rien aimé. Nous avons du quitter le logement et louer une nuit ailleurs à la dernière minute à cause de l’insécurité et du bruit il était impossible de dormir. Photos trompeuses.

Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.

Nothing to do with the booking above. The same market, priced the same way, for if this one is not it.
