This motel is clean and convenient. The hosts are very welcoming. The bed was a bit soft for our preference. Air conditioning is a big plus, and the small patio outside is excellent for breakfast, snacking, or a light meal

Free upgrade

I stayed in Napier as part of my North Island road trip. Since it was not a busy season so I was given free upgrade. The room was overall comfortable and we (myself, wife and our toddler) really enjoyed our stay.

Helpful staff

Very helpful and friendly staff. Clean room, location was OK, supermarket near by, road noise was a bit of a problem in the mornings and early evening, but overall not a bad place to stay.

Small but clean

Found the room very small but took a long time to warm up even with a heat pump. It was quite adequate for an overnight stay and was very clean which was most important. Thank you.

Nice Motel

We came around 930 pm and to our nice surprise the room heating was on and the room was clean and tidy. I stayed only one night but wished to stay further. My wife and I were very happy staying there. The shower was great. Great value for money.
