The motel is located next to the state highway, convenient to access, to 15 minutes from the Waitomo caves. The host, Margeret is very friendly and helpful. She provided milk when we checked-in, and also offered to dry our wet cloth that we got from the previous activity. Although the facility is not the newest but it's very clean and convenient. I am happy that we stayed there for the night.

Aged property, could do with an update. No face flannel nor toiletries other than 2 small soap bars. Ok for my requirements of an overnight stay. Overpriced.

The manager was so wonderful and helpful. I would recommend this motel to any travelers. It was centrally located to most of the sightseeing in the North Island, kiwi house, glow worm caves, geo thermal geysers, botanical gardens, shopping and places to eat. Our bed was very comfortable, the other 2 which the kids used were too soft for them so we took them back to their tiny house. Check in and check out was extremely easy. I give these accommodations a 10 plus.

The staff were lovely and welcoming. Good size units with comfy beds. pretty tidy and clean with everything you need. Easy location and quiet considering on the main road. Our kids were pretty excited to see the playground (trampoline & swings), unfortunately they looked like they were about to collapse & pretty dangerous. Would've been great if they were usable. Otherwise, lovely stay.

The property definitely needs renovations and upgrade. The kitcen is very outdated and the kitchen cupboard was dirty, and some of the utensils were oily and dirty. The lady at the reception was helpful and nice, and the bed was comfortable, but apart from that the rest of the room wasn't up to standard. The cost was $150.00 per day, and it wasn't worth the money you pay for. The shower recess was small, and you can’t adjust the shower head.

We had a wonderful stay ! Very friendly staff that went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed, even our washing which we were grateful for as we’d had a long day cycling! Quiet surrounds and the pool was very welcome. Highly recommend staying here!

Front desk staff was nice and friendly. But the rooms were too outdated. Each room had sufficient flying bugs that crept up at night to help you stay awake. Overall our stay gave us the creeps.

The staff was nice and friendly, however, the bed linen was dusty that we start to cough during the night. We were not able to use their swimming pool as they will open it at the time for our check out time. 11am - 9:30pm when it should be open in the morning before your visitor check out. Most of the time we are out to visit other tourist spot around the area and morning is the only time we will have time to use the pool to relax before we check out.
