Great staff member who came to open reception for me after 11 pm. Great friendly communication prior to arrival. I had room 5 and it was perfectly clean and comfortable. Good bed and shower and quiet neighborhood. Very convenient position when coming from the late ferry then travelling up north. It was appropriate for the price.

Went to check in on arrival. Reception was closed...sign on door states "Im away from Reception ring the bell or call this number" Number is answered by a random person who asks where you are ringing from. I tell them there is another customer thats been waiting for 30 minutes. The other customer could'nt understand the person on the phone. They then gave me a code for the lockbox to hand the keys out. I told them I wanted to talk to Reception..and when would they be back, I was told 4pm. Nobody turned up, the same sign was up for 2 days. How ridiculous to have no one onsight. What must our overseas visitors think. Great kiwi hospitality....NOT.

NEVER STAY HERE!! This place has falsely advertised themselves, the photos are definitely nor reflective of the actual place, it is absolutely disgusting. I booked for a week and only stayed one night, as it was so filthy. I gave notice the next morning and then they wouldn’t refund me the rest of the week even though I was happy to pay for the first night. There is no staff on site , all communication is over the phone. there is a number to call on the reception door. Policy is that they need 24 hours notice when cancelling so they needed to refund the rest of the booking to me. They were rude and horrible people to deal with, so be warned, you will not get a refund in accordance with policy from this place. I wish I had read the reviews before booking so perhaps this is my own fault. I just wanted others to know to steer clear of this motel, it’s not what it looks like, READ THE REVIEWS!

I legitimately don’t understand what everyone else was going off about. Yes, this place needs a bit of a spruce up as some of it is a bit dated, and yes, it probably needs a proper deep-clean just to go over some of the harder to reach places but overall, it is clean, tidy, smells fine, and has oodles of space. This is coming from someone who has stayed in 10 different accommodations on this trip alone.

No one was manning the place - cleaning staff unable to communicate due to lack of English ,external light shone into room all night so we had to hang blanket over curtains ,all glassware unclean ,whole complex old and tired. Our smoke alarm went off due to bathroom steam and a loud fan was on the whole time so had to sleep with earplugs. Won’t be returning

Room was filthy with stained carpet, Musty smell. Filthy under beds and sofa. I was shown another room, but that room was not suitable for myself, wife and daughter to reside in for four days. I was then shown another room which barely made the bar, because the staff member who was assisting me was very hospitable i took that room. So I compliment staff member Sam for his hospitality.
