Spacious room, very clean. Great location as within walking distance of shops, supermarket, beach, restaurants and bars. Right next to a train track but only 2 trains each 24 hours while we were there so hardly a major deal. Bathroom sink could use a plug and if you like a harder pillow like me, best take your own. Overall though, great motel and when we're back in Hokitika, we'll stay here again without hesitation.

Modern room but in desperate need of a plumber the kitchen tap leaked. The tap for the toilet was turned off so we turned it on only to find in the morning that it had been leaking and half flooded the bathroom.

SUPERB

SUPERB!!! ...Yes I know I'm yelling. This motel was a great find. We were travelling to Auckland from the South Island. Night time and in torrential rain we had to travel behind two trucks with trailers spewing road water onto our windscreen since Waiouru. Enough we said lets stop at Taupo. The roadside board advertised special rates. We got this, a lakeside view, a unit with a private geothermal water plunge pool, and a host that has a genuine interest in us [the customer]. In the morning on departure we were given two bottles of water [with the motel's own label - good advertising]

Reception not open after 5pm ish. Did not answer phone and had to buzz numerous times to get someone. Laundry - the lady charged me $5 per wash and $5 per dry. Didn’t realize till later that on the wall in the room was info on laundry and it stated $2 per wash, $2 per dry, and $1 for soap. So I was overcharged $6 (I have my own soap). Left too early to complain.
