Aarangi Motel

The staff were VERY friendly and location was perfect for walking one block for dinner or the beach.

The building is older, but has been well maintained. You can tell that the managers put a lot of work into taking care of things.

The location was perfect. On a quiet street blocks away from the beach and 15 minute walk to some amazing restaurants. The owner was really kind and friendly & helped us find everything we needed nearby. Slept really well- the bed was great. Really good value for the price. Not a super fancy place, but comfortable and restful. Loved the balcony overlooking the garden.

Nothing, it was exactly what I expected. :)

The separate kitchen area was larger and a small, fully functioning, kitchen.

Not as clean and older decor/interior/furniture

Location , staff, cleanliness,

Comfortable, clean, quiet room. Friendly staff. Older style but nice for our short stay.

Good location and warm comfy beds. All of the beds were heated. A nice touch in winter. Will definitely return.

We have a dog and the price was $35 per night for her to stay which can add up quite expensive for 3 nights. However, this price seems average across motels in this area per night. I prefer to find cheaper options given our longer stay.

The proximity to the beach, cleanliness of room and amenities were amazing. Great working spot too!

Check out was not later :(

A separate bedroom was the first great thing. Accepting pets too. Off street parking very close to the unit made it easy to carry pets and luggage. Very quiet location in a lovely neighbourhood. A convenience store nearby.

The units are old and small but clean and functional with good furnishings and linen. I’d like to suggest that the extra fee charged for a pet could be a bond returned on leaving the unit immaculate but I appreciate this could cause more problems.

location to the breach

the wording 'may be charged a fee for a pet' It would be good if this was itemized on the bill and paid for through the booking.com website at booking and it not be an add on when you get there.

Great position close to beach. Comfortable and good value for money. Veronica was very helpful in ensuring we had a great stay in some awful weather!

Great location good value for money. The owner was very friendly and extremely helpful.

What a lovely little spot, short walk to the beach and cafes and restaurants. The weekend we stayed there was a movie on the beach. Playground is 15 minutes walk away. It was a comfortable room for me, my wife and two little boys. Friendly staff and they managed to fix the low battery fire alarm beeping very quickly. Highly recommend!

Good location, friendly helpful staff, clean and comfortable. Free parking close to unit. Close to beach and food outlets.

Convenient location

No plug in bathroom sink and water blocked taking a long time for sink to empty.Poor amount of coffee/tea/milk available.

The location was 2minutes walk from the beach and cafes selling breakfast lunch and dinner. The kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and lounge were 4 separate rooms, which made the unit feel very spacious. The staff were very helpful when I ledpft something behind, when I locked myself out and when I requested a shower mat as I found the floor slippery.

The door to the garden was not one that could be locked from outsidexand couldn't be used to leave the unit or return that way.

The location was great to be out of the city and close to the beach for morning exercise. Close to restaurants.

The property was unkept including the grounds and the rooms need a good full clean.

Close to beach, shops and restaurants. Near bus stop to city. Clean well equipped and spacious, quiet. Has a washing machine and dryer. Manager very helpful.

Small things need fixing, windows wouldn't open, sliding door to patio needs lubricating

LOCATION location location!!! QUIET. 100 metre walk to the BEACH front / great CAFE( Kohi Cafe) and to top it off the BUS STOP. so if u are heading into the city which is what our stay was for ( concert at Spark Arena- bus stops right outside), it cost $9 each way with approx 15 min trip ( which includes stops along the way), and since the buses run frequently into the early hrs of the night, there was no hassles with parking or worry about how we were getting home . just jump back on the bus (@midnight for us) The motel is also in walking distance along the picturesque waterfront to Mission Bay beach/ restaurants approx 1km if that, which is what we did. Our room was a Superior one bedroom ( ground floor) - great parking at motel and also on street if needed. The Manager was extremely service focused . Happy to let us in an hour early walking us to our room personally . VERY WELCOMING .

Had ants on this stay. but nothing some bait wnt fix. and let’s face it we have all that problems with ants invading our homes fr time to time.

Helpful staff, great room spacious and comfortable

Maybe outside looking a little tired and dated

The location is absolutely amazing, so close to the beach. Owners are very nice and helpful.

It’s a great place to stay a few nights but it lacks a little bit of extra comfort for a long stay. The wifi wasn’t working really great and we were missing some essential serving plates and bowls
