Clean and tidy and bright. The only thing that might need looking at was the single bed in 23 had springs in the mattress that was very uncomfortable. A new mattress would be much more comfortable

Not a lot around the general area, but the motel itself was great. Looks a little tired outside but the rooms are really nice. Clean, fresh feel, excellent bedding and friendly staff. Would recommend for business travelers or those not needing to be in the heart of the city.

It marked our inaugural visit to New Zealand, and our experience was exceptionally inviting and comfortable. The bus stop is conveniently just a 3-minute walk away. All necessary amenities, including food and grocery stores, restaurants, and a gas station, are within walking distance, ensuring convenience even for those without a car. The room was in excellent condition, and the property justifies its price. The motel staff is not only helpful but also friendly and efficient. It's undeniably a great place to stay
