The reception area smelt like old cigarettes, the room smelt a bit, the carpet felt old/not nice to walk on with bare feet

Free parking. Room was standard, but comfortable. Everything was central.
Pretty outdated when it comes to the vaccination passes, not even the hospitals ask for vaccination passes!
Need to update your website.

The room we stayed in had white patches and stains on the couch and the arms were filthy. Bathroom old and moldy, beds were terrible could feel springs. Floor in bathroom was sticky, and the shower moves. Extremely outdated! Won't be going back.

That it was close to my home where we couldn't stay because of home renovations that evening
We were unable to stay at the place we had booked while renovations were being done in our Whangarei whare. I booked accommodation as available on Booking.com.
Arriving at the Motel approx 6.30pm we were faced with a number of issues.
1. We were told there was no vacancies until the woman found the right booking on her database
2. She quickly mentioned where we lived which was just around the corner - telling us that they don't usually take bookings from local people.
3. She asked me for everyones COVID vaccine record, stating it was very clear on the website. Checking back on the website Im not able to find any such information.
4. She asked me why we accommodation i explained. She noticed my husband wearing a health uniform at the same time and said ' oh I see you work on health you've given me a good enough reason'.
Her manner was rude and became ruder when my husband appeared. We are a Maori whānau, both of us are health professionals living in Whangārei.
Not impressed and would definitely not recommend.

Handy location
There was no smiling face to welcome us – just a grumpy woman who was quite stroppy.
It was cold and the heaters seemed to be on a timing system. No instructions for that.
