The room was clean and tidy, the bathroom was a bit dated, the carpark was limited for space and the person in the room to the left was a smoker and was constantly outside smoking, which left a stale smell outside the adjacent rooms. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Eric’s one night stay in Cambridge

This is a charming little motel close to one of the most charming towns. The owner made sure we could check in early after our sleepless night flight into Auckland. We had a nice swim in the pool and the location is so quiet and in close proximity to the main part of the town.
