The apartment was spacious and spotless, with a comfortable bed and nicely equipped kitchen. The hotel is further from Hamilton than I had expected, but the little town of Morrinsville had plenty of restaurants and grocery stores.
This place was peaceful absolutely. They had thought of everything All amenities tidy clean and a well maintained property. A wonderful proprietor. He left us well alone with NO punitive orders like most motel complexes have.
There was a cooling fan electric blanket wall heater and heat pump Also a bathroom heater and fan. The shower was excellent
Thanku for a relaxing restful peaceful and most pleasant stay. ( We hope to return again very soon!)
We booked last minute and were pleasantly surprised by the Motor Lodge. Lived up to its rating. We just had one night and it’s was great. Comfy lounge area, SKY TV, comfy bed, great shower!
The two bedroom unit was great, clean, comfortable and spacious. We ordered breakfast and received a delicious homemade continental breakfast in a generous portion.
The spa in bathroom was also a bonus.
Thanks to the family who own and operate the motel. You are doing a great job. Keep it up👏👍
Everything about the room was lovely EXCEPT the bed and bedding. All of the pillows provided were too high for me and I had a sore neck in the morning. The bed slumped to the middle.
Oh and the tea selection wasn’t very good.
