Comfy beds, pretty affordable. Pretty much had everything we needed and was close enough to Napier and Hastings where we needed to be

The fridge just feels like it’s really low to the ground. We also had to be mindful of the tv as if we were watching in the main area and pulled it out, anyone walking past and if it’s dark enough, you run the risk of smashing your head and/or the tv. Maybe consider moving it to the far wall that the kitchen runs along

The service they gave when I said it was our birthday ( mine and my babies ) walking into the room and seeing what I saw lit my day as I was having a hard birthday, also the service on if we didn’t stay the full stay they were happy to help out but we ended up staying cause the comfort of the place felt like home very therapeutic

No oven to cook food had to spend our money on takeaways

Good position near facilities you can use restaurant and bar just down the road the local people were very nice. The view was great waking up to and the coffee condiments were great along with getting free milk.

Would had been nice for pool and spa to be opened longer after 8 to 12 for adults only would had been nice as we were there for one night we got back from pub at ten and couldn't use it so it shut a bit to early and were there mainly for pool and spa that's why we paid the price we did for the room. There was no washing basket for our dirty towels

Nice cozy rooms with sky tv installed. Good location near to beach having swimming pool and spa. Room allocated parking with no additional cost.

Everything was in line to the motel rooms nothing that much to complain. Just that was bit pricey reason could be the time of the year we booked in and availability.

Room was spacious and clean. Loved that the bigger bed was in the lounge so adults could stay up and watch TV and kids could go to bed. Most often single beds are in the lounge
