Un beau motel offrant un logement de deux chambres. Très grand, nous avions tout l'espace qu'il faut pour nos besoins. Un espace de stationnement nous était réservé et l'emplacement était excellent. Le personnel nous est apparu bien affairé cependant à notre arrivée. L'accès à notre chambre a été rapide, mais sans un accueil remarquable.

This is a nice, clean motel close to the Springlands roundabout. A short walk to fish & chip shop or choice of several bar/restaurants and the Supermarket is 5 min stroll away too. The grounds are nice and the Owner was friendly too.

We booked a one bedroom apartment with king bed. While dated it was extremely spacious comfortable. Only downside was no cookware for microwave as no stove. There was nothing to heat anything up in. Handy eateries nearby but we were traveling with our own food. Very reasonable price for size of apartment.

We booked this room for a night's sleepover only after coming off the late afternoon ferry crossing from Wellington. The room was compact, so would have been limited for a longer stay but was all we needed. Had a good sized, modern bathroom.
