That the owner upgraded our room after my previous review expressing that I was not happy about the Studio which was a very small room with a bowl for a sink to wash your dishes, a small TV, and if I'd known that this accommodation housed transitional/emergency housing tenants I would not have booked a room. However, the owner clarified that they do not accommodate transitional/emergency housing. The owner followed up with us the morning we checked out to see if we were satisfied with our stay. And it was much better in the larger room with seperate kitchen.
There wasn't anything we didn't like this time.

Clean tidy rooms with everything I needed. Just around the corner from Ozanam House and down the road from the hospital made it the perfect location. Good size, comfy bed and it was great having a desk as well as a little patio out the back with a table and chairs. The staff were helpful and friendly.
The only downside was no sink for washing dishes (have to use the bathroom) and there was a knock in the pipes when using hot water.

It was convenient to where I needed to be and sufficient for what I required. Reception people friendly and helpful.
Slightly noisy neighbours arrived with door banging etc however realise that's what happens when you're not at home - some people just do not think about the sounds they are making and it can happen everywhere and anywhere! It wasn't excessive noise and it was for a short period of time.

Allen was so accommodating to our needs as our family had to make a dash to Palmerston North Hospital late. The unit was warm & comfortable. The beds were a bit short for the 6 ft family members but they made it work. We had everything we needed for our stay. Location was great.
Beds bit short but still very comfortable.

We loved our stay here! Place was clean and tidy (although felt a bit dated) but the staff were so lovely it made up for it! Unfortunately we did have some annoying farmers in the room next to us who kept taking our park but that wasn't the motels fault. Room was perfect for us with our new bubba and toddler :) Location was great with a fantastic cafe next door
Nothing, it was a lovely stay! We would stay again

We really enjoyed staying at Aztec Motel. Damon is super friendly and knowledgable about Palmy. The motel's location is quite central in that it's a quick drive into the centre of town. There's a great fish n chips place just up from the motel too. No problems with parking and there's a coin laundry room if you need it. The room was super clean and it was spacious with everything that you need. The pool / outdoor Picnic area is neat, but we couldn't make use of it because it was raining during our whole stay.

The king size bed was very comfortable! One of the better ones we have stayed in. Heat pump was affective and quiet. Everything was clean and tidy. We had all we needed for a quick overnight stay.
Shower had good pressure but is fixed to the wall so quite low on taller people.

It is a lovely motel with great owners/staff. Easy access around the city with a couple of great coffee shops within walking distance. My six-year-old loved the pool, trampoline and grassy space for play. I enjoyed relaxing by the pool, in the sun, and watching the kids play.

Lovely spacious motel, clean and tidy and close to the hospital if needed. A drive to get to the town square. Mobil petrol station is just across the road if you need any extras. We booked a room with two beds and there is a microwave, toaster and jug, so easy for making simple things. Nice little touch with bikkies, peppermints and orange juice sachets along with tea and coffee. I'd highly recommend and will return.
Washing our dishes in the bathroom. Otherwise everything great.

Allen was very accommodating and very helpful with all our requests and queries. The room was very clean and as expected for a 3-4 star rated facility. Absolutely no complaints, would happily stay here again😊
