The motel was good value for money, close to Massey University (5 minutes by car) and close to central city (2 minutes by car). Although the room was dated, it was clean and had access to a park behind the room.

Views shared by host which do not align with our societies wider values of inclusivity and kindness. Unfriendly and rude comments about one of our children. Definitely not staying again. Rooms were very adequate.
