Detailed Reviews
We stayed here for one night on the way to Wellington. The motel was nice and clean and the lady at the front desk was very friendly and provided good recommendations for restaurants in the area. Our room was very large and spacious. The beds were comfortable and the shower pressure was good. They even had a spa tub/shower. You can order breakfast from their menu and they will bring it to your room. There is a fee for breakfast, but it was well priced and convenient. The air conditioning in the room was good. There is no safe but they had a nice small kitchen area that had a microwave, refrigerator, kettle, toaster, dishes and utensils. I would definitely recommend this motel.

Totally recommend - Pat and Dave are down to earth with a great sense of humour! Our unit was spic and span (even an apology for a mark on the carpet she could not remove). Spacious car park outside door. We out of reach of road noise, just perfect! Most obliging couple, and we felt very special with a treat of home grown veg along with our lamb shanks! Thanks so much both of you and we hope to be back soon. A motel with friends

Room Tip:Â Think that the two units closest to main street a little more noisy unless a sound sleeper.

Clean. Well presented with a personal service. Huge bathroom however, Shower cannot be angled downwards and is not good for short people as my hair still got wet Nice to have some cookies and sweets in the room too. Full Sky to watch which was lovely too. I would be more than happy to come back here

This motel was nothing like the reviews I had seen on booking.com. We were tired after driving and traveling on the ferry back to the North Island and I had been unwell for a few days.
Typically my money was taken before I saw the room. Dont ask me why we didnt just walk straight back out. I guess it was because I had paid and we were tired and you know you dont see the dirt straight away or in the late afternoon light. Luckily we were just there to sleep and eat breakfast.
The vinyl flooring was damaged, the carpet was dirty, there was mould around the spa bath and the vanity was cracked and peeling. The paintwork was worn and electrical points cracked. The dining chairs were filthy, the dining table and the bedside tables were scratched and cracked. It was pretty bad.
The owner gave us an electric frypan to use as there were no cooking facilities in the room. It was completely useless as it was thermostat controlled and just kept heating up and turning off. I definitely would not class this as a 4 star motel, more like 2 star. Perhaps you could check out my photos on google reviews.

Great motel. Good parking right outside our room. Very comfortable bed which is probably the most important feature when you only stay 1 night. Rooms were impeccably clean. The owner checked me in at the front reception in a welcoming and efficient manner, be wary of her husband though, he has a habit of habit of wanting to play ( in my opinion ) rather warped practical jokes😂. I’ll definitely stay there again but in the meantime I’ll devise a way of getting my own back

Nice view of cute vege garden and park. Like staying at Mums.

Room was clean and well appointed.
Pat was very helpful with our booking, checkin, and a beaut breakfast at a reasonable cost. It was lovely coming back to our room on an icy evening to a warm room.
It is in a handy location and good parking.

First time at this motel. Will stay again as greeted and given a full orientation to the room and available parking. Room had the usual things. Enjoyed the TV and SKY which actually worked and had no issues. Nice and quiet setting. The shower pressure was great! Bed reasonably comfortable, air con worked well to warm room. Above all, and the most important thing to me, the room was clean and tidy and clearly attention to cleaning detail. Close to town.
