Friendly staff. The room is clean, tidy and the bed is comfortable. Sadly the motel WiFi didn't work from inside the room, and the heater didn't heat up properly.

Hokitika Fire Station Boutique Accommodation
Unfortunately, the room is not soundproof as stated because we could hear everything from the guests in the next room including their toilet duties! Room is decorated great and is clean and tidy. We wish we had a better sleep and experience because it’s a great concept.
