Valdez Motor Lodge

It had a lot of space which made it easy for a wheelchair to get around. The walk in shower was awesome. The water drained away and didnt go everywhere when you had a shower. Also the bed wasnt too high so it made it easy for someone in a wheelchair to get on the bed. Definitely recommend.

Room was over-priced for what we got. Air bath didn't work. We told staff but no response given. Bad smell in bathroom. Broken parts on bathroom walls. Smoke butts left in tray in courtyard. Courtyard overgrown and unkempt. Outdoor furniture stained with mould. Mould stains on mattress protector. Sign in rooms asks you to do your dishes on leaving which makes me wonder if they are checked for cleanliness. Freezer compartment iced up. Comfortable beds and good shower pressure.

I liked the parking options, where we could park right outside our roo, the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff and the safe surroundings with not much noise.

We paid for our family to stay for three nights at a total of $1499! For this amount of money we expected a high quality establishment. Unfortunately I was disappointed from check in, you would think with five people we would get at least two little milks upon check in so everyone can have a hot drink in the morning. But no it was still your standard one, even though we paied extra to have five people? The room itself was a good size with a nice tv. Thats where it ends. Beds- absolutely awful. Great a dishwasher! But no dish powder to use it 🤔 Nice private courtyard, but it had broken plastic chairs with sharp edges, not great safety for our four year old. The shower leaked, the shower liner was all cracked and when we turned the jets on for the ‘spa bath’ it smelled so bad we couldn’t even use it. The toilet wasn’t fixed in place properly and moved. There was some sort of sticky residue all down the cuboard door where the hinges are. There was only three large plates allocated, so our $500 a night didn’t even allow us to all eat together??? And while the pool was lovely the safety lock didn’t even work which meant my four yr old could open it as he pleased, ah what? We decided to leave after only two nights for health and safety reasons. I requested a refund for the last night since we had to pay for a play elsewhere due to the let down of their facilities, but have yet to receive a response. Not impressed.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Unit was clean and spacious. Parking was good. Would stay here again.

Great place to stay quiet good parking

Property is in need of refreshing, we had broken door handles, broken towel rail, wifi was shocking, stained pillows, the courtyard was overgrown and dirty, broken dining chair and thin blankets

The location is ideal, great. The pool was dirty, our mini fridge was leaking water. The stepping out of spa bath was dangerous, too steep and slippery.

Pool gate was not secure, bathroom was dirty, ANTS!!

It was poorly maintained beds very uncomfortable Tv did not work at night for some reason pool was cold nothing for kids to do we were glad it was only one night have stayed in alot nicer places in Hastings and cheaper just they were full when we came up staff were ok not fantastic or anything vut ok if you want to stay budget but not friendly but hard on cost

This motel was really below my expectations for what we paid. Everything was old and worn, with multiple things broken. The receptionist was also never at the desk. It appeared that it hadn’t been vacuumed in a while and huge stains on the carpet, also ants everywhere. No aircon was upstairs, only a tiny fan so it was really hot.

A bit of a horror show, especially around the bathroom: 1. Shower head’s pipe leaking=no pressure 2. Shower head mounting broken 3. Shower curtain full of holes(quite gross) Overall cleanliness also lacking and bed is uncomfortable also. Has been my second time here, and would prefer not to go back until they fix these basics.

Saw a few ants in the room and had a musty stench in the bathroom so unsure how clean it really was and how regular it gets cleaned

It was close to where we wanted to be unit needs a good clean up they didnt restock coffee tea

Wet black dust on the ranch sliders, Bathroom needed some love, tacks in the carpet hidden by a mat over it, internet to slow, the heat pump remote would work properly, skirting boards needed dusting. The bed was comfy and the linen was nice. Would not stay here again.

Bathroom needs attention. Mould around shower.

The bathroom had mould in the corner edge of spa and dirt on skirtings in bathroom a few holes in the wall by the door and by TV one was patched up the other one by the door was not the table outside where we could sit was rusted and deteriorating broken around edges of table and sharp. We were meant to just have a queen bed in our room I did ask for two singles they were nice enough to add a single bed so we had a queen and single no extra charge which was nice.

Huge stains in the carpet and everything else needs a bit of a revamp

I had a terrible nights sleep by being woken by the sound of an alarm going off from 5am all morning repeatedly from the room next door, paper thin walls and I thought the phone had been left inside my room and I started looking for it (that’s how thin the walls were). Will definitely be staying elsewhere in future.

They are large rooms, some facilities are dated, needs work in the rooms

Friendly staff who let us check in early. The rooms were spacious and we had everything we needed. The pillows were a bit too firm and thick for my taste. Good value for money.

The only good thing i can say about the room was it was nice and big and you could open a sliding door out to a small outdoor courtyard. It was very neglected, there was a terrible smell quite alike to a smell you get when entering a resthome, the pillow cases had stains. The shower head would not stay up. The owners door knocked after 9 am when check out was at 10 so not sure what that was about as a different language was being spoken. It did seem as if repairs/maintainance was starting.

Nice staff. Good quiet location. WiFi service was not good.

A good sized unit for a large group, but is getting worn. Needs refurbishing. Still tidy and relatively clean but elements of worn carpet, lifting bathroom fixtures. Certainty not a 4 star quality

Friendly efficient check in. Helpful staff . Spacious and clean room. Quiet location yet only minutes to town centre .

We spent three nights there and absolutely loved it. Our experience was fantastic, and we appreciated everything about the place. Although it isn't new, they have done a great job maintaining it. The service was excellent. We originally booked for five people but changed our reservation at the last minute. We informed the staff, so I only paid for the four of us and kept the same family room I booked. It is very convenient and closer to the Splash Planet. I recommend this hotel to anyone planning to go for a holiday in Hasting.

It iis close to the fresh seafood place

Excellent location. Really clean and spacious room. Will definitely coming back in the future. Really closed to Splash Planet
