Unit was clean but overall a bit tired.
Although the sign in the unit said breakfast was available this was not the case. This wasn’t a problem as the location provides plenty of places to get breakfast.
Reasonable for the price and location. I needed to be close to the airport so this was ideal.
Had a wonderful sleep, for a busy road it was a quiet place.
This is a budget hotel, so for the pricing it is great. So it is an older motel so the rooms reflect that, the housekeeping could be better. We would definitely stay there again.

Lovely that they had turned the heating on, I was coming in on a late flight.
Bedroom light above bed didn't work so had to get out of bed again to turn out the light.
Kitchen could do with a blind as can been seen from outside
No shuttle from Airport available when I phoned to let them know our flight wouldn’t arrive until 6:30 PM. Taxi cost $ 48.00 NZ to drive 7 km. Arrived at motel in pouring rain and nearest grocery store 20 minutes walk away, no restaurants nearby-Domino wouldn’t deliver pizza. Many thanks to young man at front desk who drove us to nearest grocery store
Motel very old, rundown with old appliances and furnishings. Garden in very poor shape with just one old swing.
We had to ask for milk and no shampoo.
Items were stolen in broad daylight from inside my LOCKED motel room. Laptop, bike gps computer, portable speaker, iPod, headlamp. All expensive and important things to a bike packer. Owners are not taking any responsibility. Windows were cracked but they are 5’ off the ground and property is fenced. They acknowledge that their staff entered the property to ‘service’ it even though I never requested it bc I was only there for 2 nights and one day. I filed police report and tracked the laptop to their location for an additional 4 days after I reported the theft. They still claim zero responsibility. Frustrating to say the least. So not stay here.

We like the placement of the motel. Quiet, even though on busy street. Everything provided. Easy to find. No noisy neighbours.
I only stayed for one night, but the room was much larger than I had expected for the price. Equipped with a individual dining/living room, kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to ensure that my stay and even the time after check out went as smooth as possible.

Comfortable. Dated decor but fine for a one night stay.
Really lovely motel, and i love the fact that some of the rooms have covered parking right next to them. It might not be the most modern motel but don't let that put you off, it was warm, and it's clean and the shower was hot and strong. Lovely staff.

Ideal if flying from Christhurch Airport.
Overall a decent little motel, could do with abit of updating though. Carpet had a tear in it, and was quite dated throughout but to be fair I would stay there again so it can't be that bad. Would recommend!

Brief overnighter.
Nice rooms. Different seeing individual rooms rather than the open plan in newer hotels. Accommodated a late check in with great service.
Only 1 night for us, but I travel through and will be staying again. As we arrived late it was only in the morning that we noticed the lovely open plan garden out the back.
Bathroom could use a revamp but otherwise a very pleasant place. We left some stuff behind and they were happy to forward to us.

Nice motel close to airport
An older styled motel but what it lacked in style it made up for in silence, comfort, good service and airport car storage.
