Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
This was a great place to stop overnight on way north. Easy to find, easy parking, retro but very clean and functional space with everything needed. Really appreciated the little deck area with table and chairs as it was a nice night to dine outside. Close to main road but fenced and with door shut for the night no road noise really. We would stay again when passing through.

Very clean and has everything you need. On the main road though so a bit noisy. In summer, there are tons of mosquitoes. The place needs fly screens

Great option for a night to break up a long drive north. Close to the road so a bit of noise but comfortable bed and tidy accommodation. We advised we’d be there late, check in was super easy and they left the lights and the heater on which was a great touch - thanks!

Very neat and clean. The room had everything we needed from tea/coffee to towels and even make-up remover. The bed was a little uncomfortable but that is due to my preferences of a firm mattress and pillow. All in all is was a great experience.

Stayed overnight to break up the drive to wellington. Really helpful that we were able to check in late. Excellent communication from provider. Studio was immaculate, clean and stylish, with everything we needed for our stay. Could hear passing traffic, but did not bother us. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you.

Traffic is very convenient and not noisy. The room is cozy and relax. Very recommend for others. The hot water and cold water are not mix in the bathroom face wash. Since that, it would be better to reduce the temperature of the hot water.

It was very tidy and well priced. The only issue i had was i arrived quite late, and the web sites phone number went to answer phone. Was unsure how to access our room, as there was no manager on site. Otherwise nice place and good value.

It was pouring with rain when we arrived, so we really appreciated having the carport and entry cover, so we didn’t get soaked hauling our luggage in. Great for a 1nt stay on our way from Wellington to the Coromandel. Because of the weather the Coromandel didn’t happen, but that’s a whole other story!
