The motel was great. Close proximity to transport and shops. Bed was comfortable, kitchenette was handy to have. Carpet in room was a little tired. Reception friendly and helpful. Had a minor issue with the heat pump and it was attended to immediately and we were also given a heater. Perhaps a small chest of drawers in the bedroom to store clothing and a broom and/or a dustpan and brush would be helpful. Enjoyed our five day stay and will return to the V Motel. It’s a great place.

The staff were wonderful and so accommodating. The motel is spotlessly clean and equiped with all the amenities as well as extras like chocs on the bed. Serviced daily if required. Spacious and comfortable. Definitely one of the best we have stayed in. Will absolutely be back.

We used this for an overnight before flying out of Wellington for which this motel was more than suitable. Big room, modern, all the facilities we could have needed for a longer stay in the Wellington area had we had the time on our busy itinerary. Most importantly and easy, short drive to the airport.

Good sized room with very good facilities. Comfortable bed. Convenient for the airport. Carpet was well worn and a little dirty around the balcony door and there appeared to be a smell of stale smoke in room (perhaps from people smoking on the balcony and leaving the patio door open).
