Pros +
- Clean comfortable room. Friendly and efficient staff.
- Spa bath. Plenty of space for 1 person
- Close to everything, it was just a walk to the shops, takeaways etc.
Cons -
- Curtain attached to sliding door couldn’t have the door open w the curtains closed, people could see in room if door was left open for fresh air
- The room was clean, but the only thing we didn't like was that there was no proper sink for the dirty dishes. There was a container in the bathroom, but we didn't know it was for the dirty dishes until the day we left. We didn't want to wash our dirty dishes in the bathroom sink, but we had no choice but to use it. It felt very unhygienic. The rubbish bin was far too small for the bathroom and the kitchen.
- The fan in the bathroom was rather loud and some icons on the aircon remote have worn away making it more difficult to use. There was some noisy traffic at times which isn't the fault of the motel, but a pity. The lady who greeted us was very pleasant but maybe she could have found at least a couple of positive things to say about Palmerston North, yes we know it's not a world tourist centre but it must have a couple of things going for it. A hotplate and a frying pan would have been appreciated as I'm not sure a toaster and a microwave quite qualify as a kitchenette - but not a deal breaker for our short stay.

The place was clean and clear signage and close to everything that I needed
Short walk to a few places like supermarket and pub but also just a few minutes drive from the University. Room was quite simple and mostly met our needs. It was handy being able to park right outside the room too. Plenty of hot water and a spa bath were a nice addition.

Property was very clean and had everything I expected, close to town also
Could park my van inside the property, too tall, had to park out on the busy road
Great place to stay. Clean, tidy, and quiet and only a few minutes walk in to the centre of town. Also very close to Pak'n Save and the shopping center. Reception was super helpful.
Hard to find any minus about staying here
Excellent, friendly hosts. Great location. So clean and fully equipped with toiletries and tea/coffee supplies. Particularly liked the fact we had lazy boy chairs to relax in. A great stay.
Clean comfortable room with a a giant bathtub. Convenient to bus transportation.

The bathroom was very clean and very large which is great to move around in. The shower was also great especially with the pressure. There was clearly mark shower gel and shampoo and conditioner available.
As my husband is disable the toilet was a little low and he needed to really judge the height. The tiles outside the shower wee slippery, but we managed with using the towels on the floor with the bath mat
all good comfortable and clean
a little dated

Owner was great and very accommodating, the property had 2 awesome and well behaved dogs. Close to everything but off the main drag.
Close to town.Spa Bath and good pressure in the shower.
No kitchen sink.
Good shower over spa bath. Plenty of crockery and cutlery. Husband was very pleased to find Sky available so he could watch the rugby
A heater in the bathroom would be good as it it was quite cold in there.
Location was perfect, the bath and the shower were great. Good size room too.We were made to feel welcomed.Off road parking available.
The bed and the pillows were very hard. I was up in the middle of the night as I was so uncomfortable and sore.
Staff were great
Ash trays outside rooms, chance of smoke entering the roomNo safe
The spa bath was lovely & relaxing. Clean tidy warm room, everything we needed for an overnight stay - friendly staffWould’ve washed my own dishes if there was a small bottle of dishwash liquid
The bed was abit too firm for my liking but will not hesitate to book & stay there again
Great location, very convenient. Reception desk lady very helpful when we couldn't get the TV to work.
