Wow we were very impressed with this motel. Very spacious room which appeared to be recently renovated. I was greeted by a lovely gentleman at check-in who was friendly and helpful in recommending local places to eat. Would definitely stay again!

It's a great place to stay. However, our neighbours were rude and argued outside our room. The walls between units were thin, and I could hear snoring coming from next door.

Great place to stop over on the way to Hobbiton or when traveling. Only stayed one night but the room was clean and had everything we needed for our family. Right off of the road and near grocery and restaurants.

Front desk staff was very friendly, room was nice and we had a lot of options within walking distance. Would have loved a washing facility but staff did tell us of a laundromat just down the road.

It is quite run-down and needs a bit of work to improve it. The beds are very uncomfortable.

We had a leak outside our window and couldn’t sleep in. But the rook was one of the best we have ever stayed in.

A Bit Noisy.
The manager is very nice. One drawback--the room furnishings shook when trucks went past the road next to the hotel. (And the manager assured us that we were in the quietest room in the motel.)

For the area and the price, this property was good. It was very clean and came as promised. Shower was a bit wonky to turn on and towels were rather thin. Definitely the least nice of the 4 similar places we stayed in across the North Island but great location and much less costly than 2 of them.

Friendly staff and good location for a single night stay, but due to proximity to Countdown store and the main road, there were a lot of truck noises at night and early morning.
