Super dated, also some of the cabinets were water damaged and have not been replaced. A couch was provided however it was so uncomfortable we chose to sit on the bed instead. There is no AC or heat pump. The only thing this Motel had going for it was the location as it was a short walk to the CBD and that there is free parking in site. Suffice to say I would not stay here again.

Such a great little treasure! Room was clean, bed was super comfy and we even had a small lawn with a picnic table available to use.
Staff are very friendly and helpful.
Also, the walls are thick, so you won’t hear your neighbours snore…
Can’t wait to go back and visit again.

Fantastic stay, super friendly host

Super friendly host (thanks Dominique!). We stayed in unit 7 on second floor. The place was very clean, spacious and plenty of sunlight getting in. It's not luxurious but has all you need. There's thoughtful minor touches that you'd not find in your usual accommodation in NZ - such as a bottle of wine for not smoking :)

The property was well overpriced for it's overall condition. It was outdated with a lot of little problems that add up. Very small toilet and bathroom area, very noisy as there is no double glazing, no Sky, and on it goes with small problems. The rooms just show their age and are not worth the money.

The property is very well located to be able to walk into the centre of town.
The unit (number 10) was very old and tired. The hand basin in the bathroom was badly cracked as was the toilet bowl. The vinyl flooring in the bathroom and the kitchen area was so old the pattern was worn away plus the surrounding skirting boards full of dust. The kitchen cupboards really old and basic. The fridge was next to the curtain which had to be pulled away to open the fridge door. The couch in the lounge area was very uncomfortable.
The bedding was very clean but the pillows small and completely swamped in standard size pillowcases.
The carpet seemed quite new and was nice and soft to walk on.
The shower tray was very clean and the shower head had really good pressure. The liquid soap was useless. I will not stay at this motel again

Very accommodating owners

After making our reservation online, I realized the office would be closed before we arrive. I called and let them know and they were able to make arrangements for us to get into our room. Turns out, they we're actually still there to meet and greet us upon arrival. Room could use some updating - like raising the shower head to a better height to make it easier to shower and wash hair.
We ended up extending an extra night since there is a lot to see and do within a 60-90 minutes area.

The motel staff threatened to cancel our booking a day or so before our stay due to an invalid card when we due to pay on arrival - the credit card was infact not invalid, the motel did not accept debit cards

Our motel room was not as we were expecting. The photos made the room look new and modern but we were thoroughly disappointed when arriving

The motel is located quite centrally to food and easy access to the motorway. The after hours check-in service was easy but overall we had a disappointing experience and would not be looking to return

comfortable for short stay

Good room for a short term stay. Bed's very comfortable and great quality linen. Nice duvets and blankets, we were plenty warm enough. Heater provided in room surprisingly good and we were nice and warm. Found the hotplates a bit difficult to cook on as took ages to heat up and hard to time cooking of different foods needing to be combined for a meal but managable. Not a lot of bench space for prepping food, cooking, and dirty dishes. Even with concrete walls, we found the noise traveled a bit from the room next door.
One thing we have never had before though, is when the room above us was cleaned, the dirty linen was just dropped as is over the balcony landing in the parking space right outside our door. Didn't know if to be grossed out or laugh!

Tidy motel in a convenient location.

General impression is of facilities that were probably out of a somewhat bygone era, regarding more the kitchen/bathroom. Still, all was very clean & tidy. Room heating was a small floor standing unit that was adequate for the purpose.
Comfortable sleeping facilities.
Kitchen facilities adequate for short stays.
Shower pressure a little weak, though that may be a factor of the relatively high elevation of the location. Fairly low, unadjustable shower head, required some contortion to get good overall coverage.
Traffic noise, particularly weekday mornings, could be an issue if one is noise sensitive.
Overall a perfectly adequate place for the price.

Excellent location

This motel is within walking distance of The Strand, which is the location of many cafes, restaurants and bars. A supermarket is a short drive away and the cooking facilities, although a little dated, are working and clean. The only criticism is the shower, which was almost impossible to have because the shower head is so low. Michael, the proprietor, was very friendly and made us feel like we were at home.
