Pukekura Motor Lodge
We stayed here for a weekend. Check in was easy and welcoming. Our room was ready, and spotlessly clean. Our bed was comfortable, and although our room was close to the main road, we were not disturbed by traffic noise.

Plymouth International
Good place, quite central. Would stay there again. Although some younger guests were quite noisy late at night. The hotel management should just put a sign in the hallways for all guests to be aware and respectful towards other guests after a certain time in the night.
