Clean, comfortable Seemed a bit expensive but was definitely nice
- Lynette (9/5): most enjoyable - not applicable nothingmost
- Heather Carew (9/5): Very comfortable, good location and efficient staff. - Everything was really good from the check in to the checkout. I was especially impressed by the cleaning. I think the only thing that could have improved the motel unit for me would have been an oven - apart from a microwave oven - and more than just two of everything. I was visiting relatives in Whanganui and if I'd wanted to invite them around for a cup of tea - or a drink - I would have had to ask them to bring their own glasses, cups, utensils etc. Most motels I've stayed in have been more generous with these items. However, this inconvenience didn't occur on this trip and everything was fine.
