The room in this motel was the best room we stayed during our trip to NZ (15 days). It was very clean, had a king size bed which was very comfortable with a kitchenette which was very well equipped, there were even sweets and serviettes. It would be great if you were driving around NZ as you could leave your... more

We found tha the most common type of tourist accommodation in New Zealand is fifteen to twenty room independent motels , usually run by a husband and wife pairing. We stayed in quite a few of these and found them all to be reasonably-priced, though usually the rooms were a little small and not well-appointed. So, we didn't have high... more

Had a fantastic stay here, the room was beautiful with a fabulous spa bath. The owners couldn't have been more friendly or helpful. One of the best places we stayed in New Zealand, would definitely recommend it more

We had only one short night here, but wish we had had more. The hosts were so friendly. The hotel is located near tons of restaurants. We actually walked to the grocery store, grabbed cheese, crackers and snacks and relaxed in our room. Rooms are clean and comfortable. more

The owners were accomodating and helpful - plus offered free washing facilities - very rare as we were to find out. We... more

I didn't like the 10 am check-out time that they were rather strict about - found this to be a bit tacky given we stayed for several nights and... more

The unit had a big bathroom with a nice spa tub. There was also a full sized table for having meals at, which is nice for a family. We also liked the dishwasher which was a perfect size to run it frequently. The unit was very modern. We also liked the free laundry. It was the most expensive place we... more
