Good, Dependable Motel near Airport

Less than 5 minutes drive from Napier Airport, the Albatross Motel is also a close drive to central Napier, restaurants near Ahuriri, and the Esk Valley wine region as well as being across the road from the Ahuriri Lagoon and its walks. Great to stay here again and would be happy to stay again!
