Room was perfect for families. Very friendly staff. Hot tub wasn't working (waiting on the council, so wasn't their fault) but the motel supplied a free pass for our family to the Polynesian Spas which was lovely. Easy parking right outside our room door. Definitely would stay again

Friendly staff, loved the room but some things needed some attention. Hot tub was a HUGE bonus. Already planning our next couples trip and leaving the kids behind to have that Hot tub to ourselves. Close to the RSA with great food and easy to find.

Rooms were nice and clean, hot pool was amazing for a long day of exploring close to Fish n chip shop and a dairy around the corner. To make these rooms exceptional though... an aircon should be installed. Easy to find, great quiet location, not far from town.

Room was nice and clean. Staff went above and beyond! I was going to be late for check-in so I called and they said that is absolutely fine, then mads arrangements for my room key. I had a total of 5 guests so the staff gave a few extra towels, even a few hot chocolates for the kids. I was able to wash and dry all our laundry.
