We had to book a room at the last minute due to personal emergency. It was graduation week and our usual place was booked out. They recommended coming here. This motel was Great value for money. We managed to snag the last room for $209.00. Staff couldn’t be more friendly, helpful, welcoming! The guy behind the desk was awesome!! Room was a bit smaller than what we normally get (booked studio) but that’s really being picky. Couldn’t fault otherwise- really clean, everything so functional, bed really comfortable, great shower & bathroom and great environmental approach. Even had a small composting container for scraps, free wifi, sky on tv. Room overlooked courtyard- really pretty well kept garden. Free parking. Location great. We walked everywhere- city and hospital 13 minute walk. Couldn’t fault.

Excellent motel! Comfy bed, warm and modern. Nothing was a hassle! I had to extend my stay last minute as my husband had surgery and ended up needing to stay in hospital longer and they were very accommodating and helpful! 5 minute drive to mercy hospital which was great so not too far away from where my husband was. Would definitely stay here again. The only thing i didnt like was the people staying in the room above me stomping around like elephants throughout the night woke me with a fright several times but this isnt anything on the Excellent motel or staff

Oh no Terence/ Rachel! What did we do wrong by you? It is devastating for us when we simply have not been able to satisfy a guest of ours or even begin to understand what what the issue might have been. I have also looked back through our feedback forms from rooms (we keep them all so that we might correspond to our guests when they comment of give us feedback) and could not find one from your room on the dates you were here.So - we are sorry for whatever we did that meant your stay was not great.Adrienne,Chris & Kent

Checking in was smooth and welcoming. In the room there was welcome biscuits and a letter addressed to my name, outlining some important informations regarding the stay which was very kind and sweet. The cleanliness of the room was a top notch especially the bathroom which was sparkly and spotless. Conveniently located, short walks to the town/uni/botanical garden. Overall very happy with the stay and would love to return for our next trip to Dunedin.
