A comedy of errors didnt get our stay off to a good start. The motel is quite worn and the room could do with a good coat of paint and the ripped dining chair could do with a replacement plastic cover. On the plus side, the room and bedding was clean and quite spacious and it was a quiet location at night. Would we go back again ................. No, we would look for somewhere else.

A decent night's sleep

A good basic motel, if a little dated. Comfortable bed. Wairoa is not a great town although it is in a beautiful setting. Don't count in finding anywhere decent to eat out. The hotel has a pleasant little swimming pool.

The room was good. Very clean. The internet was sketchy. Quiet place close to everything. Asked about a nice place to eat and recommended the Vista restaurant. He was quite right.

Bare sparse and antiquated

I would advise any traveller thinking about staying there to reconsider there wasn't even any hot water for shower a thourgy depressing experience and a waste of money
