Overall we had a good stay at the motel. The room was clean, the staff were friendly, and the location was convenient. Most parts of the experience were smooth and enjoyable.
The only major issue was the airport shuttle service. We paid $15 to book the 6am shuttle to the airport, but it never arrived. We waited until 6:30am with no communication or update from the motel. In the end, we had to book an Uber ourselves for a very similar price just to make our flight.
What was most disappointing was that we never received a refund for the shuttle service we paid for but never received. Apart from that issue, the stay itself was good, but this situation definitely left a negative final impression.

After getting our rental car, we arrived LATE after hours. The key was easily accessible in the lock box. The room was perfect for a one night stay after a flight. Left early the next morning but the hosts were helpful and very kind in giving us advice. I would stay again!!

Such a warm and frirndly welcome with that wonderful kiwi humour. We were provided with several eating suggestions within easy walking distance. The room was impeccable and comfortable. They provide their own shuttle service to the airport so no wondering or waiting for your ride to turn up. We left at 4am for a 10 minute trip to the airport. Highly recommend.

Very accommodating as we arrived around 1am (by taxi) then needed a shuttle ourselves back , as had disabled mother with electric scooter and walker, so lots of gear. Thankyou
Anna
We had a very brief stay at the motel and had a positive experience overall. Staff were lovely everything was clean and the curtains do an amazing job of blocking out the light. It was a little noisy with traffic noise and if people were talking outside the room but there was no Josie through the walls and otherwise was perfectly fine for a 1 night stay and very convenient for the airport. We did not take advantage of the shuttle service but understand it works well.

Jeff was very helpful and goes above and beyond as a property manager. He picked me up at my airport and he also dropped me off at 5am at the airport. Walking to the big supermarket takes about 10 minutes. There was a McDonald's about 10 minutes walk away. The room was super clean. I stayed two night off the road trips and I came back for one more night. I will stay here again. John S.
