We really enjoyed our stay. The unit was big & well set up. Quality furnishings & very clean. Very comfortable. This has to be without a doubt the best motel I have ever stayed in whilst travelling around NZ. Great value for money. So close to a great park & easy walk to the CBD & supermarkets.

Toasty and well maintained
In the middle of winter what you want is to walk into a room and find it has the heating on, towel rails heating towels for you and heated bathroom floors. I even slept on top of the bed as the room was so toasty. These people make you feel like a welcome guest.
