Happy to come back

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 10 Mar 2019
My room was spacious, nice bathroom, comfortable bed and clean. Host is very kind and friendly. My only gripe was the pool. It was very hot and I looked forward to a swim. I just was able to get in and never thought ahead. The top bar of the ladder was missing and I almost could not get out of the pool (I am not the lightest or youngest). The rest of my stay I therefore could not enjoy a swim.

Reviewed 19 June 2018

We were not given the unit that we had booked and paid for some time prior. The motel was full so had to wait until next day to change units which was inconvenient but the reason given seemed to be valid. The second unit was not as well presented as the first. The shower was very dated and the front drapes, the first thing that is seen on arrival were very poorly hung and appear to have come from elsewhere as they were far too long. No can opener. Both units were very clean and well serviced. The hot water in the unit was way hotter than approved safe limits...so thankful that our grandchildren were NOT with us.

my husband, myself and our 10 month old baby stayed her on a Saturday night. The room was dated but clean and had a very comfortable bed with an electric blanket. Shower was lovely and hot with good pressure. This is one of the very few motels that offers a free portacot. When we got to our room late on the night of arrival they had made the cot up for us and turned on the heater in the room that it was in. Would definately stay here again. Reception staff were extremely friendly

Room tip: ask for a room away from the road

We travel regularly to Hamilton to visit family and always stay at this motel. It has spacious rooms, comfortable beds, fantastic showers and best of all - it's always been immaculately clean. Never been bothered with road noise here. Could do with a couple of hooks in the bathroom to hang clothes on. Suitable for travellers, short/long stays, couples, family. We found it handy enough to everywhere we wanted to go.

The sign at the front says Quality Affordable Luxury. Don't be fooled ...it's not Quality nor Luxury!
The rooms are very dated and esp. the bathroom was not clean.
Shower is awful and cold most of the time.
Beds uncomfortable. One person in my group ..an adult ...had to sleep on what looked like a couch bed. Very short and springs sticking out.
The walls between the units seem paper thin and you can hear people talking in the other units ...ear plugs required. The plumbing is also noisy so every time the taps get used in the neighbouring units you can hear it.
Definitely won't be back.

Very worn fixtures & fittings, broken door handles, dirty furniture. We were reluctant to get into the beds. At $60 per head it was expensive given the sub standard quality of the units . The website was misleading and not reflective of the actual standard of the accommodation.
