Poor maintenance. 2 lights not working and kitchen and bathroom were not great.
4.5 / 5.0
Brilliant location, easy enough to get to, very central for a number of beaches which can be walked to and vineyards. Large bright spacious cottages which were well stocked with plates/cutlery etc.
Less than a 5 min walk to a large Countdown and some takeaways.
Great base for a trip to Waiheke
- There were some ants in the kitchen so you had to be careful with food etc.
- Slightly dated in areas but didn't bother us at all.

Staff and location.
Everything else. Room was not up to par, photos are pretty misleading. Carpet heavily stained and beds not firm. It is very low budget and prices need to match. Shower falling apart and no space for clothes to be hung as there are no cupboards.
4.0 / 5.0
the unit was clean, the bed comfy and it had lovely morning sun and an interlocking cane and glass table and chairs which I found quite charming. I’d stay there again.

3.0 / 5.0
Handy to shopping, dining facilities and bus stops. Great support from hotel staff.
The ants and mosquitoes. My body is riddled with insect bites. Also wish it was closer to the beaches...
3.0 / 5.0
Loved the proximities to amenities. Loved the ambience.
Probably little miscommunication with key allocation and having to come back home.
5.0 / 5.0
I stayed in room 14, which is the original building. It was comfortable and clean and got the morning sun.
The staff are friendly and helpful. It was nice and relaxing with the spa and pool facilities at the end of the day.
It is handy having the supermarket, eating places and bus stops all in walking distance.
I like that the motel is environmentally responsible and loved the bed linen they use.
Overall I had a enjoyable stay.
2.5 / 5.0
Location was good, shops and bus stop around corner. Size of room was good and car parking was good.
The room had mouldy curtains and did smell a bit damp although was tidy. Would have expected it to be more modern for $250.00 per night. Water pressure was very low and floor stayed damp all day. Pictures did not represent what it actually looked like, maybe update.
4.5 / 5.0
Central location. Convenient for those on business.
Shower temperature fluctuates from very hot to cold.

There was a comfortable bed.
Unit was clean.
Staff allowed us to leave our bikes there for a few hours.
It was cold . The heater was too small and didn't heat the room.
The shower was impossible to regulate. It was either too hot or cold . When you thought you had it set , 5 seconds later the temperature altered again.
No spare blankets supplied.
The tap wear we not properly fitted in the sinks and 'wobbled'

1.5 / 5.0
Just location, it was close by from the wedding venue. Heatpump was good.
Just spent a night there. Facilities were not clean at all. Eg windows, toilet walls, bathroom basin curtains. Bed was not comfy at all. But Bedsheets were clean. Everything looked like old and over used too much.
1.5 / 5.0
The location and the view
We were "upgraded" to better room but did not enjoy the incredibly narrow staircase and the layout of the beds on the ground floor with one being right at the entrance door.
The spa pool was a big reason why we chose the place and that was closed for maintenance and looked like it had been closed for a very long time. We had not been informed of this so that was disappointing.
The shower kept running out of water.
3.0 / 5.0
Friendly staff
Clean room
Bed is on casters skids all over the floor, couldn't sit up to read or watch TV.
Had to ask for fresh towels.
Advertising stated that a spa was available, it was out of order and appeared to have been for some time.
This was one of the features that persuaded me to book this establishment.
Spa should be removed from the Advertising or at least flagged that it's not working.
5.0 / 5.0
The owner Kelly was quite helpful and lovely. We came for a family vacations and both him and his Wife were both so so nice.
