Rustic, restful and roomy.

We were a group of 17 seniors who booked out the whole motel. As it's an older building there was plenty of space for sharing and lovely lawns. We were back off the busy main road so we're not disturbed by traffic noise. We could walk to the Skyline gondola and were right next door to the rabbit mini golf. We played at night. So beautiful with the real rabbits and all the lights. The owners were very helpful and quick to fix any issues we had.

Great Customer Service!!

Great stay, would book again. Communication with the Motel, prior to stay, was excellent I enquired about a very late check-in, manager gave me a number to ring when we got there. Turned out didn't need to, but really appreciated the manager being so great - no issue to check in late, took heaps of stress off. When we got there manager took me to room and gave me a run down on everything, including how to work the tv. Can't remember the last time that happened - again really appreciated it. Thank you!!

It didn't have laundry facilities but there was a laundry business just a short drive away. Hot pool was out of order. Lots of other amenities close by, countdown, garage, take away, food outlets, skyline. And a decent size play ground for a toddler. Owner and staff were very nice.

The unit was functional but looked tired, also has a strong musty type smell. The heater/blower did not work. The unit could really do with a refresh or some TLC.

Bien.

La señora que nos recibió fue súper amable. Lo mejor de este hotel es la ubicacion, al lado del poblado Maori, del.centro kiwi, el agrodome.y el parque de atracciones. No es un motel "moderno" pero la habitación está bien equipada y es espaciosa.
