    • The property was well kept and the room was very clean had no complaints
    • 20 minutes walk into heritage precinct, excellent amenities and very clean! The bed was super comfy and the tv was the first one I could actually use since arriving in NZ ? It was a restful nights sleep and lovely views over the golf course.
    • We have been traveling for over 3 weeks and this little motel was the cleanliness one we stayed at. Not fancy but the nicest people too! Highly recommend!

    We have stayed here before, had comfortable beds and the location and outlook is perfect.The shower control was at the shower head height, and also rather stiff to operate. Liquid soap and shampoo dispensers were also mounted too high and therefore less convenient to use.

    The super king size bed was too firm, whereas we had a double and a single bed before, which were comfortable.

    Good location, heat pump,bed.

    Bathroom fittings showing signs of wear.. overall not value for money

    Easy to find, close to shopping mall, comfy bed. Everything you needed.

    Figuring out how to use the electric hob.

    8Clifford-harveyPosted on: 4-21-2025

    The view was nice and the bed was comfortable. Good central location.

    The bathroom facilities were a little outdated

    10ChrisPosted on: 4-20-2025

    The owners of this lovely property were so welcoming. Their motel is lovely and is in a quiet street only a very short walk from the centre. It also backs onto the golf course. We stayed 2 nights and it was perfect. Thank you so much.

    9AlisonPosted on: 4-10-2025

    Roomy unit with a lovely outlook across the golf course. Lovely owners, went out of their way to assist. King size bed was very comfortable, kitchenette was well stocked, and although the bathroom was an older style, the shower was very good. Easy walk to shops, restaurants and bike hire.

    10BarbaraPosted on: 3-25-2025

    The location. Within easy walking distance to the town. The views out the windows were fantastic

    Bit overpriced for the rooms you get

    8DavidPosted on: 3-21-2025

    Location, parking, nice and confortable

    WiFi didn’t work

    8RobertPosted on: 3-20-2025

    Staff very friendly. Mostly fine facilities. Great location.

    As I reported to the managers, the mattress on my half of the king bed was extremely uncomfortable and well past time for replacement. The other half was acceptable. I expect the need for attention has been met by now.

    9BrendanPosted on: 3-17-2025

    Great quiet location. Large, clean room. Owners were very friendly and helpful. Bed was very comfortable .l

    10MikePosted on: 3-17-2025

    Great location, golf course next door, cut through a hole in the hedge to the pub and shops.Friendly staff, clean and tidy, good parking, will definitely be back.

    Yes, couldn’t stay longer.
