Guest Reviews
- Maclennan (9/5): -
- Dale (8/5): -
- John (8/5): - Avery good stop for our group of 5 couples
- Jax (6/5): Close to Whg base - Everything I needed for a night stay to be close to Whg base Hospital Although minor .. soundproofing
Not use to traffic noise
- Mahamood (8/5): -
- Marlyse (10/5): - We spent 3 night - the personal management was very very friendly and helpful
- Moana 🌺 (4/5): Not welcoming at all! - The space, bed configurations, location and that it had a spa. The staff were very rude towards our family. Even though we had booked 3 rooms, 2 family members (grandparents) visited during the day to come support with baby as baby was sick and we had been in and out of hospital the day before. We booked the spa, which we were about to get out so our 2 family members could enjoy aswell and the owners came rushing in, intimidating and threatening us to get out of the spa. We respectfully said we were getting out and they stood there waiting as if we weren't leaving. Thn at 9:40am on day of check out, we had already tidied our room and packed bags into car, with only little bit of things waiting at our door to leave and as I was getting out of the shower, she came to shout at my mum telling us we gotta leave and hurry up because they are waiting because someone needs to come in and check out is at 10. We were ready to leave, and it wasn't like our room was full of stuff. It was ridiculous, disrespectful and rude! Never going back again! My cousin and her family had booked in for 3x nights, and im glad I only booked in for 1x night, but still - I will never return. They don't like families, nor do they like visitors so don't expect to go there if you will be inviting family around even for lunch, even though you have booked multiple rooms and they even have outdoor tables that are big enough and cater for more than 4people. Nope! Not a welcoming place at all.
- Ariana (8/5): Clean - Clean, nice shower. Lovely accommodating owners.
- Mandy (8/5): - The staff 0
- Braulia (7/5): -

- Frances (9/5): Handy, easy access post knee op - Close to hospital great space to recover after knee op
- Davy (7/5): - Location. Air conditioning clean bed comfortable My wife has Parkinsons so toilet was too low and shower needs replacement. It is a real step up and worse a large step down
- John (8/5): I / we won't be returning. - It was not sound proof enough - we could hear the chn or guests next door. It was too noisy - could hear when showering, toilet flushing, talking and chn banging noises etc - The proprietors could have put them somewhere else or us somewhere else as there were a few empty / vacant rooms. As above.
- Lorraine (8/5): Clean room, great shower, good interaction with staff. - clean, tidy, great shower! nothing to complain about, it suited our purpose for the night.
- Michelle (10/5): Perfect 4 job required - Easy to get to - great location - quiet Nothing ….
- Allen (8/5): Thanks. - Location.
- Cohen (7/5): -
- Wano (4/5): Stale and Filthy - Location was good. We used rooms 13, 15 and 16. Room 13 had a musty stale smell. The heat pump had a funky smell when used, stroger smell when heating. The bed sheets where synthetic not cotton like the other rooms. This should be advertised as such. The bed cover had visible food or milk crust stains with bite marks on it. The shower door had soap residue on it, like it never got cleaned. This was filthy.
- LU (9/5): -
- Tania Moeroa (10/5): Excellent and enjoyable and safe - Location was awesome lovely service enjoyable place which is a lovely week stay thank you also so much. Nil
- Sally (5/5): Unpleasant - felt ripped off. - Bland breeze block interior. Not very clean - old stains evident. Very very basic accomodation and waaay overpriced for unloved pokey room.
Deffinately NOT one to recommend for price charged @$149.
...unfortunately paid before looking within.
- Matt (7/5): -
- Cynthia (6/5): - Convenient location .
- Aprille (10/5): -
- Reece (10/5): Awesome -
- Stacey (9/5): Was definately what I was looking for and will stay again - Location is easy to get to. room was as pictured. security cameras around to keep things as secure as possible.
I left the room key in the room and only realized it after the office was closed and they were still happy to let me into the room with no additional costs. Shower pressure was a little lower then what I personally like. Bathroom tap moved when turning it on and off and had to keep readjusting it.
- Naomi (8/5): - It was close to everything.
Affordability
Person on front desk was lovely. Rooms are not sound proof.
Few other things
- Jackie (1/5): DO NOT RECOMMEND - The location. The staff assumed that I was a sex worker on arrival. They asked for my credit card details including my CVC number which I was not comfortable with. I was as placed in room 7 directly across from the office where I asked if I could be moved to another area away from the front they said that all of the rooms were still unclean. It was 2pm already. There is a window in the shower itself which is a privacy concern. The shower head has a halo spray effect so the water gets everywhere but your body and there are massive gaps around the shower door so the water leaks onto the floor in the bathroom. There was a cockroach on the kitchen bench as well, the beds were hard as rock and staff were invasive and assumed that I would have multiple visitors when I paid for one other adult and only had one friend visit for 3 hours as I’m from out of town. The following day I received a text from this a/com asking for $120 for bedding and towel damage because I got my period that night which can easily be washed out as I’m sure this happens all the time!This place is appalling to be honest!
- Jackie (1/5): Horrible! Do not stay here! - The location. I was in room 7. The shower head sprays everywhere but your body and leaks outside of the gaps in the shower door allowing for water to leak onto the floor! There should NOT be a window in the shower itself? As there is a path at the back of the accommodation allowing for people to see in. The screw was loose in the hair dryer that’s attached to the wall. There was a cockroach on the kitchen bench on arrival and I was offended by staff who assumed I was a sex worker. This place needs work and change of staff who know how to be hospitable.
- kela (6/5): -
- Tasi Huirama (10/5): Recommended stay - The hotel manager was lovely, she waited for us till 10pm. Very thankful.
Rooms were clean and nice.
Highly recommend 👌
- kimhout (7/5): -
- Barry (9/5): - Tidy and very clean, friendly staff
- Jeannie Waipouri (5/5): Good - Nice bef Cleaners cleaning at 8.30 noisy
- Joanna (7/5): - Only one night, Was clean and bed was comfortably had great air cond. Staff were helpful, there was only one issue, not sure why there was just the one chair for the dinning table. The one chair for the dinning table.
- Jacob (7/5): -
- Nellie (5/5): Not recommended, over priced - Central location , near the highway, food and other services. Uncomfortable beds, too hard. Cheap products in the bathroom, Washing facilities for laundry expensive and not accessible .
- Thea (3/5): I have traveled from south to north of this island, staying in accommodation all the way and this was by far the worst. - Not much….. owner quite rude, walked/stalked around a lot. Rooms really tiny for the price. Bed horribly uncomfortable. Very few power points. Not impressed at all will never stay there again Everything
- Raymond Weropupu (1/5): - Location Some parts of the room were old and grubby
Towels were torn
Language barrier with Managers which led to misunderstandings
- Šárka (7/5): -
- Ana (1/5): - Good location only. Customer service was poor especially with the language barrier. Had to request more towels and toilet paper after paying for additional guests. Invasion of privacy when asked about who is visiting us and they even came outside to check the cars & people - absolutely disgusting! Rooms had musty smell, no complementary milk provided. Would never stay here again.
- Maxey (8/5): -
- John (10/5): I was given an upgraded room that enhanced my stay and my weekend. Would definitely stay there again - I didn't know breakfast was provided. But I'm sure I got an upgraded room, so I don't feel like I missed out on anything. It was an enjoyable stay, fit for the reasons I was in Whangarei. Everything was satisfactory.
- Michael (10/5): -
- Lance (5/5): meet the needs, was good value - air con, was good, location, price bed hard, not that clean, average place
- Kathleen (8/5): - Drive indrive out very good The shower to.high to step in and out safely suggest a stool for elderly people also lacks power pointts
- Sue (5/5): Cheap and cheerful, you get what you pay for I guess. - Location Cobwebs , broken toilet seat and blunt knives. I had to ask for more pillows as there were only 2 in the room for us
- Alama (10/5): We had a pleasant stay at the hotel, appreciating the convenient location, friendly service, and comfortable amenities. - I really liked the beautiful setting of the property, how our car was parked close by making it easy to offload and load our belongings, and the helpful and friendly staff. The bed was also very comfortable, which made our stay even more enjoyable. I didn't like how noisy it was at times, especially in the early mornings, which made it hard to sleep peacefully.
- Anthony (8/5): -
- Sahrai (10/5): for last minute bookings it was very good and efficient, loved the stay - very kick back and chill, close to everything too not much really to not like about the property
- Caryl (7/5): - Central close to town Stove top hard to use
Kettle not working

- Chris (9/5): Overall great place to stay and easy to find. - Room 9. Great soft comfortable pillows

- Clive Shingleton (9/5): -
- julie (4/5): Disappointed with our stay here - Full sky channels
Location. Hi would like a refund especially for Mum.
My elderly mum couldn’t use the shower. Was scared she’d slip. So dangerous stepping into it, as it’s a high step into it. Stainless steel on floor with no non slip mats or hand rails etc for support. Not good health and safety. I didn’t shower again after I nearly fell over stepping out of it.
What’s up with the sheets? Not sheets as we know. They’re knobbly and hard to sleep in.
The owner saw us into room didn’t offer to change rooms as they could see my Mum was elderly.
Complimentary coffee tea were low had to ask for more on Saturday.
Finger marks stains on sliding door not wiped off.
Not a motel I’d recommend.
Is it because we booked through booking.com and paid cheaper rate that we get allocated these rooms??
Regards
