Pros:

The bed was super comfy, location was good and the food at the hotel was yummy.

Cons:

The hot water took ALONG time to come through for a shower. The toilet leaked and there was a musky smell down stairs when entering the lobby and when you first get in your room

Easy access to where we needed/wanted to go. Handy for shops, food and drinks.
Pros:

Location.
On site dining. Evening meals were delicious. Lamb shanks and vegetables was excellent.
We were riding the Northern Rivers Rail trail - Lismore to Casino section. The weather was cold and wet; having a lovely warm room/shower to return to after our 60km round trip [cycling] was absolutely awesome. Having the restaurant right next door was an added bonus for dinner both nights. A lovely breakfast next door [at The Bank cafe] was an extra bonus

Cons:

Room was somewhat dated. But very comfortable.
