Dehydrated worms & filth in the sliding door track, rubbish from a previous guest on the floor, toilet seat fell off, we reported this but it wasn't fixed. Wall paper is peeling off the walls. This place was not good value for the price.

Very comfortable bed and a good shower. It was old style but clean. Nice room but very small. Check in is to late and there was no tea towel or bath mat. I thought the price was a little bit to high for the quality, size and location of the room.

Great Stay!

This was our first stay, but won't be our last. Hosts were very friendly and informative, which we appreciated. The grounds are well kept, and we enjoyed our walk around them. Our studio room was very tidy, spacious, had everything we needed and more, easy parking outside room. Great stay!

The room was neat and clean with good cooking facilities.The history of the Motel was interesting to read as it is a very old history. There is a short walk through a beautiful garden with a pond. At night there are some lights in the garden. One can also have a barbecue under the beautiful trees.

Wonderful place!

The place was the best one we stayed during our trip in NZ! Everything very clean, small details that makes a whole difference. Felt like a home, not a one night hotel.
