Guest Reviews
- W H (8/5): - I only had a quick stay. It was good for what I needed, a good sleep after a long travel day. The room was simple but comfortable.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Really Dirty! broken doors (got locked in toilet twice), broken blinds with no curtains so light flows on through, extremely hot, no aircon is fine but put in a fan or even window stays as we couldnt open a window to try cool down. Could say alot more about our room but wont. The room next door appeared alot cleaner so perhaps its being renovated. Wouldnt stay again.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - We had a family emergency and had to head home owners still took all our money and given the circumstances this was very unreasonable. We are a hard working family and have lost $420. We are so so disappointed

- Oliver (10/5): - Great little room, very comfortable and modern, will stay again.
- Anne (8/5): Clean and tidy - First time staying here and visit Gisborne every 8 weeks. Motel was clean and tidy. Nice and quiet as was at the back of the premises. Bit of a hike if you wanted to walk into town . Had to request more milk which wasn’t a problem - would prefer fresh milk though. No sink but note to offer to replace dishes if needed which I didn’t. Plenty of parking. Nice big back lawn with table and facilities for smokers. Will stay again as very good value if needs a place to sleep on an overnight trip to Gizzy

- Ange (8/5): Clean and comfortable - Lovely clean comfortable motel, we enjoyed our stay, however there could have been a heat pump as one panel heater for the whole unit was minimal, and electric blankets would have been great. A lick of paint on the walls would brighten it up no end as well, as the décor was a bit dated. Overall we had a great stay.
