We didn't get to meet lauriann, but we had a great time. The room was tidy and neat with most things there that we needed. Having access to bikes was awesome as we road into Byron bay and to the beach. Suffolk park is an awesome place to stay if you don't want to be right in the hustle and bustle of Byron during to busy times. Best pies are at the bakery only a few minutes from the studio. Was a nice relaxed way to end our holiday
