The property was good and parking on site was most welcome, the managers were very helpful & polite. Good place to stay for an over night or 2 nights, not far from the airport.

Happy Holidays Bei Fei Thanks for the great review, Regards Bhagi & Barney
The service from reception (including the extended hours of opening) was excellent. The small details like organising a taxi or providing info on places to eat was done efficiently and with courtesy.

The location is great. Just a short walk and you are the shoreline of Lake Taupo. Most rooms have a view of the lake from the balcony. Room is large. Ours had a jacuzzi tub. The property also has a thermal heated pool year round. Great to soak in after a days drive.

Hi Brian, thanks so much, safe travels, Regards Bhagi & Barney
Friendliness and helpfulness of management and staff.
Exceptionally clean.
Having a car would be an advantage but I managed very well without.
Felt very safe.

Especially liked the area map of Wellington and activities within the vicinity of the map coverage.
Next time will remember to ask for a ground floor apartment.
Enjoyed the location of the property, great customer service. Motel clean and today with everything you need. Nice to have a carpark free with your stay and would recommend to others.
Very nice and helpful staff. Nice clean room , comfy bed and close to airport. Highly recommend
