Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

As motels go this one was pleasant. Spacious room. Very clean and well equipped. Cheaper quality bed and sheets. The trains were a bit annoying. The free lemons on departure were a nice touch. Would I sty here again? No but thats not because its bad - I stayed here because thats where work put me - its just not my usual standard of accomodation. All the best :)

Really nice place, very clean, a comfy bed, lovely shower and good layout and size of unit (we had a studio) shame about the noise from the train over the back but the worst part was TRAFFIC NOISE as the front door felt like it must be made of cardboard and didn’t filter any of the road noise. Would I stay there again - no. We had two nights there.

Reviews are good reflection of what to expect. A clean, modern motel nicely appointed. Plenty of towels (- important to me) and loved the spa bath after a long day on the go. Helpful host and well looked after. Would definitely stay again when coming down this way.

I had the most unfortunate experience staying here for business firstly I discovered vomit under the toilet seat then notice something disgusting splashed across the tv screen when I pointed it out the manager insulted kiwi clients for how they treat the rooms rather than apologize he went on to say this is why I am getting out! Well good bloody riddance you Arrogant self entitled twit no customer service skills also as we were here on business and working night shift our room wasn't serviced all three days- no toilet paper no towels no emptying of rubbish bins I absolutely hope the owners see this review and take some action as this idiot doesn't deserve to be in the hospitality industry or even new Zealand in my opinion. What a loser

We stayed two nights Friday and Saturday, the room was clean and well equipped, the owner friendly. It was very noisy on Friday night due to the railway line running along the back of the motel and the main road at the front. However their was less train noise on the Saturday night. The bed was pretty uncomfortable so all round not much sleep. The sofa bed in the lounge area was also uncomfortable to sit on.

My husband and I stayed here on Sunday night and enjoyed every minute of it! We found the motel lovely and clean with all the amenities you needed. The owners were absolutely lovely and very accommodating. This motel with a railway behind and on the main road was very quiet and we had a lovely night! We would highly recommend this motel and would stay again in a heart beat!

Stayed 1 night and enjoyed the hospitality and cleanliness of the facilities that we decided to extend our stay for another 2 nights. The owner Garry was very friendly. As the room we were given this time had double glazing the train noise was minimal. We stayed here last year and the place is getting better with age because of all of the improvements Garry & Monica have made to the motel & facilities. Try it you would like what Bassingers Motor Lodge has to offer.

My wife booked via expedia which has no mention of the noise issues this place had. State highway at the front, railway line at the rear. When reviewing the accommodation online she mentioned the noise. This saw the manager turn up at our unit door (6.30pm on Christmas day) wanting to talk to her about her comments. I made it clear to him it was not the time nor place for such a discussion. Despite this he decided to email her to pursue the matter. At check out the next morning he insisted on raising the issue again and was emphatically told to let it go. He continued, essentially accusing my wife of being a liar and insisting on having the last word. I was furious and ended up letting him know of my anger in the bluntest possible terms. His facetious and insincere wishes of a Happy New Year pushed me past boiling point. What a way to ruin my family's Christmas

Great location on SH1 at north end of Levin. Owner very obliging and helpful. Facilities were all that were needed and would definitely stay there again if passing. I can recommend it. Parking good. Fine for wheelchair.
