A haven for smokers. We had a great view of Mt Warning from our mountain view room, overlooking a quiet backstreet of Murwillumbah but unfortunately smoking outside the rooms seems to be ok here. On our way out to dinner we had to walk past two groups puffing away. When we got back from dinner there was a group quite near our room. Our room had filled with smoke which had come in under under the door and via the bathroom window. We rang the manager to complain but it turned out he was sitting outside with the smoker(s)! I thought smoking was banned within so many metres of a building/doorway but here ashtrays are provided outside rooms and at tables only a metre or two away and the official 'smoking area'  is right beside the entry from the carpark. 

Highly recommended, very good.

Arrived at Motel only to find (after a frustrating look-around) a pamphlet on one of the Motel doors to head to the Middle Pub in Mullumbimby to check-in and get your Security Key. It can get extremely busy at the Pub and patience is required as it depends how many staff they have on. A sweet young woman was run off her feet serving Patrons as well as checking-in Motel clients. Easy check- in, only took a couple of minuets. Parking can be ‘tight’ on site but plenty of parking out the front of Motel. Ask them about Wifi BEFORE you leave Check-in! I didn’t and spent a while trying to find an ‘info’ folder in the Motel room (they don’t have one) and had to ring them up to ask where the code was for their Free Wifi. Ours was stuck to the main mirror on a very small tab that you could be forgiven was non- important. Check out the photo I have posted. If you zoom, you will be able to make it out on the mirror bottom left… Super impressed with our room. Queen plus single beds…. Main room was clean,tidy and smelling fresh. The only negative I have was the Bathroom is abit dated and unfortunately had mould in the shower stall and on tiles. It didn’t look like the walls were cleaned either. Air-con was good, small T.V, bar fridge nice and cold. Great sleep and key went into Secure Box downstairs when we left.
