The apartment was clean and well presented 1970s retro.
House keeping guy came everyday very pleasant person.
John the host was very informative about the area and tours.
Very convenient for town, ferries to other islands and shop's.
Within walking distance to the Watangi treaty grounds got to say well worth a visit free shuttle from the wharf and back again.

Loved the property manager (owner on vacation). She provided guidance on everything we asked about from laundry to local locations to driving to the airport. Fabulous location!!! Able to walk to everything in the little town.
The furnishings are a bit dated but everything worked and even our teenage girls liked the property.

Thanks to John, the owner of the hotel, for letting us park the car, after we had checked out, while we took a several hour long boat trip.
The hotel is excellent location wise, so convenient to Paihia Wharf. The room was quite large, clean and had all the amenities that we hoped for - coffee, milk, etc.

Only stayed one night, but fantastic location near the ferry pier to Russell; the Owner / manager was extremely helpful and friendly. For a "motel", the rooms far exceeded my expectations with electric blankets, heating, in-room kitchenettes and self-catering supplies, and overall condition was very clean and well maintained. I would definitely come back.

Customer service was amazing. Bathroom stunk really yuck. Alot of dust on lights when moved for reading. Next door bar played music until midnight made it hard night to get some sleep. Went to leave at 8.15 and no one at reception and no instructions how to leave key. To get a morning sea view the windows were covered in humidity and water.
