Friendly staff around the property. Good dining in the restaurant. Would be great if there was bed side lamps to have alittle light without having to keep the main light on. Would be very nice to have hooks in the bathroom to hang up towls after showering to allow for drying.

Booked breakfast for 7.30 . Tried several doors to get to dining room but all were locked. On our second visit we asked at the desk when we checked in and apparently there was one upstairs but there was no one we could ask at the desk on the previous stay and there was no written directions at reception. Otherwise our stays were satisfactory.

The town was awesome but the old building without proper renovation for a good night sleep is a terrible idea. We do not recommend staying here to relax.

Staff(one person only) was fantastic. Everything else was meh. The motel is still in the 80s but charging prices that are well into the 21st century. Our TV didn't work. No microwave. Mugs needed to be washed in the bathroom sink (yuk) etc.

Liked: Staff & service
The room was clean and great for one night. We were content. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. The room was just a bit tired and there was no duvet cover on the bedding. We were disappointed to not get a chance in the spa pool because there was constantly people in there who were staying for well over the suggested 30 min max. Additionally there were lots of noisy guests and there were alcohol cans all over the tables by the pool in the morning. This is not the hotel’s fault. Just one of those things. We’d stay again for a night or 2 as a stop off between Auckland and Wellington.

We stayed in the basic studio and it was very small - but to be fair exactly as stated in the information when we booked. It was definitely the cheapest place to stay in town so a good deal for what we got.
