Noisy motel by road and heavy traffic. Room was old
Good location, easy walk into town, and through reserve. Good parking, warm & sunny in the afternoon.
Trucks thundering past throughout the night.
Clean & tidy with everything we needed including SkyTV and comfy bed.
Spacious apartment, very comfortable bed, quiet
There was nothing
The room and everything were lovely and clean and well presented. The little details like earplugs available if the traffic noise was too much and the availability of different religious material.
There wasn't anything
Nicely appointed, very clean and comfortable. Liked having 2 comfortable chairs for TV viewing.
Passable
The bed was a banana, and we could feel the springs, very uncomfortable night, the rest was fine, but definitely time to replace your beds please.
Very clean, good bed, everything in working orderWonderful shower. Thank you.
All good
Easy to find, and on the main road.
The smell?can do with an air freshener.The motel is located in Taihape where it’s cold in the winter and this could be why it smells damp.
It was clean, tidy and comfortable.
Well appointed room, nice and clean. As advertised. Good shower pressure.
Didn't like being asked by staff to keep the kids quiet at 7pm when we were unpacking the car due to truck drivers sleeping.
Not much
Too old needs to upgrade facilities ok shower very poor
Did not have breakfast there.
Location very handy and easy to find but found the traffic noise from the State Highway and the main trunk railway line somewhat disturbing.
The Coachman is our go-to stay when we need to stay over in Taihape. Highly recommend ? always clean, comfortable, and welcoming.
It was clean and tidy The bed was very comfortable
No shower gel
Everything you need for an overnight stay on the way down SH1. Clean and tidy and comfy.
Road noise (although didn't wake me up)
Good, clean room, left open and heated as we arrived late.
