Our 2 bedroom 'apartment' was very dated and small. It certainly looked nothing like the photos. The carpet was dirty and in poor condition. The curtains were in very poor condition and the ones in bedrooms had what appeared to be a cigarette burn in them and had mold all through them. The kitchen and bathroom were clean. We felt this motel was very shabby and overpriced and we were not happy to stay there. We checked out again and we're given a full refund. I would never stay there again. We went across the road and got a lovely room which was cheaper. ##### s ### 8/10 Good #### Jeff, Melbourne 10 Apr 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hosts were very friendly.

It fitted the 6 of us well, with the use of the sofa bed. It was handy having a kitchen but very simple and small so wouldn't be able to make a big fancy meal. The water pressure in the shower was hopeless. Very handy having washing facilities and a clothes line. It had a trampoline at the back and next door to the primary school so we also had use of the playground there. It was serviced very well. Bit pricey but suited us well. ##### Ky ### 6/10 Okay #### Susan, Queensland 1 Feb 2015 #### OK stay. We stayed for two nights so that we could do a cruise in the bay. It was ok. Washing was cheap. Not airconditioned. ##### Susan ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 25 Jan 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Very average. Pretty average and overpriced for its age and upkeep. Overall old fashioned nz motel that needs a facelift. Showers impossible as all family members struggled with burning or cold water. Location is everything I guess, hence the rate. That said, very convenient to the main area as a short walk to 'downtown' and the harbor. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Dean, New Zealand - Auckland 15 Jan 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Facilities: Modest; Value: Reasonable; Service: Respectful; ##### Dean ### 10/10 Excellent #### sung, New Zealand - Auckland 7 Jan 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Facilities: Above average; Value: Great deal; Service: Outstanding; Cleanliness: Beautiful; ##### sung ### 10/10 Excellent #### Courtney, Christchurch 13 Dec 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Return of Honeymoon Trip 42 years later Excellent all round stay ##### Courtney ### 8/10 Good #### Ronald, Sunshine Coast Qld 13 Nov 2014 Liked: Room comfort #### close to the action Old style motel with all the comforts. right in the main street close to everything, and a quite neighbourhood. ##### Ronald ### 10/10 Excellent #### chua, Penang, Malaysia 5 Oct 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Paihia-oc'14 The owner is very helpful and full of warmth on my arrivals.
