Clean rooms and basic amenities available in the room. Pool available onsite. Owner was very friendly and helpful, reminded me of the typical watchful Aunty or Nana ; )

Covid cert were mandatory before check in and questions were asked why we had to stay at motel. Covid Certs not legally required by law and questions were over the top for breach of privacy. First accommodation in nz I've been asked this question.

Comfortable bed, hot shower, electric blanket and a plunger for coffee. Nice basic room with everything I needed for my stay. Parking and free wifi included. And a lovely host.

As an Australian, I’d never seen anything like the shower combo 🤩 And a small hairdryer would have been nice for the cold mornings, not essential, just nice.

The staff was soooo kind !!! Even though we have family living in Whangarei. We were in the country organising a surprise 60th for mum and had to hide out somewhere for a few days while doing the last organising for the event. Our lovely host was ever so kind to even offer any help if we needed to get things organised. Offer for us to use the motel fairy lights if need be.

Absolutely clean the downfall was we had no aircon in the room and while it is very hot it would have been a bonus. The reception stunk of ciggerette smoking and on arrival can only stay if you were up to date on Covid but couldn’t confirm if they were up to date? Also on entry wasn’t wearing a mask for someone worried about Covid vaccines

No aircon

Friendly staff, Room cleaning everyday, kids friendly environment , the motel is close to most amenities. Milk provided too:). the town is beautiful, a lot of out doors activities and stuff to do with the kids.

the WIFI was not quiet strong sometimes at some part of unit.

Clean, mostly quiet at night despite being on the highway, spacious, comfy beds and crisp cotton sheets. Plenty of power points for devices. A short drive to Town Basin & supermarkets. Ideal for a mother and adult daughter.

Nothing really. Property a bit dated but all the essentials covered.

very clean and tidy. lady who greeted us was friendly and informative. comfy beds. we even had a lovely visit from one of their beautiful cats. great value for money and we even got a free upgrade 😊

need more tv channels. I get up early and all that was on was informercials. wifi didn’t connect but as we both had data we didn’t go and ask about it so could be user error.

Welcoming staff member and very accommodating. Has a bath tub - convenient for kids. Close to motor way - great place for stop over if you’re passing by.

Pool is too deep for kids, pool ladder is unstable, no aircon in the room. Vax pass is compulsory.

The staff are great. I always enjoy the banter. I love the Christmas light display. It is my go to everytime I am in Whangarei.

There isn't anything to dislike.

2bedrooms and the "very large" comfortable bed. Although outdated, we had everything we needed. Reception was very helpful

No hob or oven, just a two burner hot plate. Hotel is quite dated; needs a bit of a renovation.
