Very handy to Rangiora. Easy for travelling north. All that we needed, warm, friendly. Just what we needed. Looking forward to staying their next time we are in the neighbourhood.
This was a great find! Maybe the most comfortable bed of our trip. Great hosts. It had everything we needed. Sorry we didn’t get to use our spa bath or the pool.
Comfortable updated room at an older motel. The owner is friendly and helpful. Wifi, heat and the kitchen appliances all worked very well. Recommended.
