Afew hickups on our end pre check-in, manager was extremely accomodating and helped sort things without a fuss! Made our stay very stressfree and relaxing! Room was massive, tv was huge, shower had a strong water pressure and the shower dome helped keep the bathroom dry. Kitchen with everything you need, and plenty mirrors and powerpoints to assist getting ready for a summer wedding. Quiet strong Aircon kept us cool, helping us sleep through the night. Lovely big windows overlooking the garden and pool. Loved the charging pads on the bedside lamps! Late checkout was just what we needed! Thank you Avalon Motel :)
I didnt like that we couldnt stay longer!

Location was good, we did not have breakfast. Very clean & tidy, shower had great pressure.
Would have preferred a King Size bed instead of a Queen, and there was enough room for one. We are in the later stages of life, and really who buys queen beds now. We stay in a lot of accommodation, both in NZ and overseas and very few now have Queen beds. ( The beds themselves were comfortable enough. )

Spacious unit with ranchslider opening onto patio with own outdoor furniture, and looking onto the pool in which I enjoyed a lovely dip while my partner watched on with a beer. Beautiful grounds. Very relaxing. Main road runs right by and there was some traffic noise as to be expected but we both slept well and didn't notice that when doors and windows shut at night due to the double glazing (there was air con so didn't need to open windows). Exceptionally clean and very personable host. Would stay again.
We should've planned to stay longer!!!

the room was extremely clean, very spacious and comfortable. lovely gardens and grounds. even though on the outskirts it is really close to the township (2 min drive).
car parking was a bit tight around the back. Quite noisy with others guests walking down the stairs - not noisy quests per day, but the metal stairs.

Good location for a night's stopover. It was a short distance from the town centre, on a busy road, but it was very quiet. Spacious room, and good facilities for cooking, which was good as there was nowhere to eat in the town, the evening ( Sunday) that we were there.
Nothing to complain about.

We felt welcomed from the moment we walked into the office, customer service was great and friendly. The room for clean and the bed comfortable. The only issue we had was the bathroom light was flickering but is easily fixed. Really happy with our choice of accomodation and will certainly come back.
