"The room was clean and perfect for what we needed. The location was excellent, within easy walking distance of restaurants, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The music wasn't much of an issue for us; from our corner room, it sounded more like background music playing in the distance.
One thing to keep in mind is that you'll need to walk up two flights of stairs, so be prepared if you're traveling with heavy luggage."

The owners were very nice. The suite was very comfortable. A small continental breakfast was included and there were other amenities available. The location was fantastic. Only 15 minutes max from Hobbiton, which was the main reason we stayed in the area. View was beautiful.

The property seemed very new. Clean, bright, comfortable with nice extras— a free pass to the fitness center just a few yards away, free laundry services. The staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly. When we ordered a birthday breakfast for the room, the staff cam up singing ‘Happy Birthday’ with a piece of cake , candles and ice Cream. Ludi at the front desk was especially helpful. The food at the restaurant/room service was very very good.

Everything about this motel is first-class. Our room was spacious, spotless, comfortable and loaded with amenities. The management was very welcoming and helpful in many ways. Highly recommended.

Great place to stay! Clean, comfortable, convenient, quiet, cozy! We explored all over the north island and this was the perfect “home base”. Alyce at the front desk was particularly helpful and friendly. The grounds are very pretty and well maintained. All the amenities you could need are there. Even a heated bathroom floor!! (We loved that!)
