Needed a place to stay travelling down from whangārei (from 5pm). Found this, booked online, and they were happy to be there past their 9pm normal checkin time (we arrived 9.20). Everything was clean, shower was great. Good place to stay. Would recommend if you need some place basic, functional

The host was very helpful when I had queries. The room was warm, lovely towels, great pressure in the shower, comfortable bed and spacious. My only disappointment was that there was only Sky available, no "regular" tv channels unfortunately. Overall I'd recommend this motel :)

The rooms were very hot. We slept with our windows open to mitigate this and although there was a languid ceiling fan it would have been appreciated to have something more to circulate the air.

Qeen Bed was a bit hard for our liking. Bathroom facilities excellent although pressure is very weak for a decent shower and fluctuating temperature.

Very spacious room for myself and 3 kids. However thought the main bed would atleast have legs and be up off the ground, not sitting on the ground. Otherwise was a good stay.

Amazing accommodation and excellent service, the only downfall was the partying and fighting next door, close to bedroom windows. I believe it was seperate accommodation for emergency housing.

Home away from home

Wonderful unit, clean and inviting. Spacious even with 2 beds, dining suite and kitchen. Bathroom large with a jet tub and a stand alone shower. Have mentioned that the bathroom area is quite slippery even with fan on. Tile chosen too glossy for a wet area. Grab rails by tub would be great.Carpet is possibly due for a deep clean. I will return to this motel as it has everything I need. Even though it is on a busy street it's very quiet. Staff extremely helpful, friendly and polite.
