Strong smell of vape greeted me when entering the room.
I couldn't fault the cleanliness but the signs promoting 50+ sky channels were a tad misreading when the \"good\" channels (movies etc) were excluded.
Having to redo the wifi sign up process every day was a bit of a pain.
Very comfortable bed with a great bathroom.

4 night stay

We had a lovely, exceptionally clean unit on the ground floor. It wasn't air conditioned as advertised on hotels.com but the lovely owner got us an extra fan which helped. Very comfortable bed. Has a little kitchen We were able to cook breakfast each morning and even put together a simple dinner one night. Would highly recommend this motel

Great to have a spa bath in the room. The only thing they could have improved on was put the single beds in the double room and vice versa so you could leave the door open into lounge for kids at night as one bedroom had a fire door that had to be closed.

Reliable and affordable stay in Nelson!

Pros:
Great location - close to the main Nelson centre area, Abel Tasman National Park, and the Nelson Airport
Price is very affordable and fair
Ton of TV options to choose from
Plenty of parking available
Late check-in available

Cons:
On this particular stay, housekeeping forgot to provide coffee during clean-up. We were also closed-in our room by painters. They were painting outside of our room and have covered the door in a tarp. We had to ask to be let out by the painters who had no idea we were in the room. A bit strange but we got out at least.
