Convenient Location

Off-site parking and check-in details provided in detail prior to arrival. Alarmed about having to give debit/credit card details via an app other than hotels.com, even though had paid upfront with no intention of accruing debts to the service. Had to ring doorbell to attract reception. He gave us the envelope and gestured to the stairs and room whilst continuing with a phone call. We were aware there were no lifts at this facility. We knew it was a small room when we booked, it was a bit claustrophobic for us. Bathroom with toilet had an opaque glass door. A separate seating area was occupied by a group whom were quite noisy. Fortunately we were tired after 4.5 hour drive in the rain and wind on winding roads so could block out the noise. Pleasant checkout by same check-in reception personnel with the offer of carrying our bags down the stairs. Accommodation chosen for convenience because it was midway between Wellington Ferry and Auckland.

It was a surprising gem for my wife and I. It had exactly what you could need from a hotel and provided everything in-room that most high end hotels would have as extra...this said, be prepared for the smaller bathroom which was fine - some people seem to want a bathroom bigger than their bedroom for some reason. The rooms were well appointed and really comfortable. We only stayed a night because it was a drive through visit for a wedding BUT would definitely have been happy with a 3 day stay or more. The hosting managers were helpful and great to deal with but the PRICE was by far the catch for us, given some surrounding offerings were not as nice and more expensive. A business traveler or personal trips to regions, its just relaxing and in a central location you have everything at your disposal. We loved it.
