  After 3 years we returned to beautiful Bellingen and the town and its people did not disappoint all welcoming and very friendly..... however the Bellingen Valley Motor Lodge was certainly a disappointment. We stayed in this lodge 3 years ago and the experience was excellent. This year we couldn't say the same of our experience.... the lodge is now under caretaker management and the place is run down and in need of urgent care before another guest arrives. Our room appeared clean however we shared it with cobwebs, dust and socks belonging to a previous guest. The shower leaked all night and the bathroom needs to be gutted. The neighbours air con could be heard in our room, oh and not forgetting the poor lighting both in the room and outside with a very dangerous timber trip hazard just outside our room and other rooms close buy. We were also looking forward to enjoying dinner in the restaurant as we had done on our previous visit however the menu is now so limited and couldn't really catered for our needs having a vegetarian with us. Also if you are looking to log into WIFI at the lodge it is very hit and miss. We would definitely not return and would not recommend this lodge to others and would suggest that a refurbishment takes place before another guest is charged this lodges overpriced tariff for very poor quality accomodation. On a positive note the view from the lodge is amazing and the managers friendly.
