A great cost-effective alternative to Ohakune if driving north for a day skiing. The rooms, although a little dated are clean and well equipped, and appear to be being gradually modernised over time. Staff are helpful and friendly.
Very convenient and lovely view of the mountain in the morning.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Friendly helpful staff
Good facilities in room
Could benefit from redecoration/update though everything is available and working
Good view of mountain
Great value for money
A great place to stay if you're just looking for a place to sleep, or if you're on a budget. The room was pretty dated, but still clean and tidy and that's all we wanted. The owners were lovely and so was the motel cat, who made himself at home with us during our stay.
