Staff completely disinterested and we felt like we were interrupting at all 3 of our interactions. No hot water until morning and due to attitude of owner we didn’t even get a chance to mention it. Maybe just a bad day for them but it really impacted our experience: there’s mindfulness posters everywhere, perhaps the staff could read them instead of snarling at their mobile phone.

Handy location, secure parking for my self and husband used a visitor carpark. But scaffolding outside the window, commencing at 0645 was a rude awakening. Not the fault the Riverside apartments tho'.

The location of the property is good. During Covid restrictions the reception area is only staffed for 4 hours and there were no instructions in rooms regarding facilities being unavailable and where to empty bins etc. Without access to gym or pool the property appeared expensive as it was a fairly small ageing and basic room. It was clean. Not in our minds good value for money and we should have been made aware that neither the gym or pool would be available as there seem variations in how this is managed during Covid changes.

Great location in the heart of Ballina and on the river. Great views from the balcony up to the hills. The apartment was spacious with excellent kitchen and laundry.

The apartment is not well appointed - bare essentials. Air conditioning is not easy to control with no instructions whatsoever. TV stations are very limited - need to be upgraded as far as Foxtel is concerned. Quite disappointing really considering the cost was $2,700 for 5 nights!! We would not recommend.
