Regular Expression Not Validating Correctly

I'm using the following: (/^[A-Za-z0-9 '-\/]{3,20}$/) to validate an address.

Something like "27a/67 Mount View Rd" is permitted, but when entered as "Unit 27a/67 Mount View Rd" OR "27a / 67 Mount View Rd" it returns false.

The regular expression allows for spaces, so why is it refusing to validate the latter addresses?

You have more than 20 characters in your invalid strings...
