Guest Reviews
- Wenz (8/5): - Dated but very clean and maintained. Perfect for a night stop over.
- Paula (8/5): - We arrived late and walked into a lovely warm room, that was very much appreciated.
- Diane (8/5): - Very cosy, warm unit, and a comfortable bed and pillows. A bit of road noise but it didn't stop us sleeping. Shower okay but maybe needs some attention to the spray distribution
- Anthony (10/5): - All we wanted, very convenient location, well equipped. Would recommend.
- Maurice (10/5): Stopover on a longer trip. - Had difficulty with booking. The cleaning lady ovrtseeing the place was very helpful.
- Peter (10/5): - Would like shower gel in the shower.
- Jacqui (10/5): Good value - We had everything we needed, and it was a good price. All nice and clean.
- Davina (6/5): - Cosy a little tired
- Verified traveler (10/5): Travel break - Easy friendly check in. Lovely clean room and good facilities. Road noise a problem, I came prepared with ear plugs and got a reasonable night's sleep. - almost needs triple glazing to help and a door that blocks out noise. Apart from that I have stayed here 2-3 times and always enjoyed my stay.
- Craig (10/5): - Accommodation great Dinning out not many opportunities
- Phillippa (8/5): - Ok
- Anne (10/5): - It was unfortunate the person on duty was too busy to talk or welcome us. She may have had an off day
- David (6/5): - By the side of the highway so take ear plugs! Cheap noisy plastic toilet seat. Good basic motel accommodation.
- Lorraine (8/5): - Nice place to stop over. Travelled with fiance and our 6yo, and the unit was clean, tidy and gave us all some space to ourselves.
- Keith (8/5): - I have stayed here before, its a good location for traveling the island between centers, just out of town. The downside is the volume of heavy trucks on the main road outside late at night. Reasonably priced and same standards as most other motels for the price. There is a good restaurant close by for dinner, good menue and a welcoming roaring fire, in winter.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great overnight stop, would stay again.
- Alison (4/5): - Lots of road noise, curtains were not able to darken room as the lights were so bright outside room. Bed was only a double, partners movement transferred through mattress making sleeping not restful
- Ivy (10/5): - Great place clean and lovely staff
- Beth (6/5): - So close to main road traffic noise is constant through the night …… take ear plugs! Otherwise a very pleasant stay
- Paddy (8/5): - This was just an overnight stop to break the drive between Auckland and Wellington and was adequate for purpose
- Lesley (10/5): - Wonderfully clean and comfy
- Janet (8/5): - The property was in a good location for an overnight stay but extremely noisy as it is on a main trucking route. The noise didn't stop until midnight!
- Goretti (10/5): - Lovely, friendly hostess greeted us upon arrival, gave us the key and showed us our room. The location is very handy to all amenities, 2 minutes drive to the local shopping centre, nice restaurants, New World for snacks and drinks, right on State highway 1 for easy access. Cleanliness is tops, bed very comfortable, compliments to the hosts and we shall return soon.
- Raewyn and Stephen (6/5): - Was clean
- John (10/5): - All very nice ,great staff
- Julie (10/5): - Convenient - hosts are thoughtful and kind.
- Alan (10/5): - Service was great, four of us all felt comfortable, room clean, small kitchenette perfect, friendly and helpful owner
- Sarah (6/5): - Clean unit with everything you need, although a little dated. Very accommodating for a late check in. Would like a bed side on both sides of double bed as nowhere to put my water, phone and bits. Unfortunately it is bang on State Highway 1 with rail track too which is not ideal for a good nights sleep.
- Andrew (10/5): - .
