La limpieza es irregular: algunos encontraron las habitaciones limpias, mientras que otros informaron sobre superficies polvorientas, una cocina compartida desordenada y, ocasionalmente, hormigas o cucarachas. El Wi-Fi es poco fiable, especialmente en las unidades exteriores, y hay aparcamiento en el establecimiento. Espere una estancia sencilla y orientada a la comunidad.

This property far exceeded our expectations. We expected a room with a bathroom and nothing else..... for the price we paid we were happy with that. The beds were comfy. The owner was friendly and chatty. The rooms were well stocked with jug, toaster fridge. There was a fan for the hot nights. It was close to town. The gardens made it seem like we were on a tropical island get away. It isnt a fancy hotel but we were pleasantly surprised with this property.

We stayed in the ensuite hut. It was very clean and spacious, you could use the combined kitchen and BBQ area if you liked but our room had it's own mini fridge, and plates and cutlery. It's all set in a lovely garden. A quiet place to stay.

This is a true hostel. The room we stayed in was small, no microwave or tv. There were some ants but nothing that wasn't remedied by taking the garbage out of the room. It was fine for the 2 nights we stayed but wouldn't have wanted to stay longer.

Pros: I had a good stay at the White Elephant. I stayed in a cabin at the back of the property. The gardens at the back are beautiful and it was very quiet at night. The staff are excellent - very friendly and helpful - many thanks to Lorin and Gurt/Gert! The cabin had a comfy bed, ensuite, fridge, toaster, kettle and crockery & cutlery. There was a good heater. The location is excellent. The local bus stop (from Nelson) is a 5 minute walk and the supermarket & town centre are a 5 to 10 minute walk. There are lovely estuary and beach walks in Motueka. Cons: The cabin was not super-clean and all the surfaces were rather dusty. Also, on my last full day, I came home to find ants near the head of the bed and in the bathroom. Another guest also told me that she had ants in her food in the communal kitchen. The White ELephant is certainly not the only place in NZ to have ants, but it would make me think twice about staying again, because I was staying in September and not in the hotter weather, when ant activity is worse. If they could do a deep clean of the cabin and address the ant problem before their summer season, then I would definitely recommend the White Elephant.

This is a review for the private cabin: it was functional but very basic. No toiletries were provided. The cabin had no heating or cooling at all, it was quite cold in the morning! There are much much better private rooms in Motueka for only slightly more money.
