I booked this property for my mum who was travelling alone. She thoroughly enjoyed the room she was allocated. On arrival the room was warm and a light had been left on for her as she arrived late. The bed was comfortable and the staff took good care of her as she navigated getting backwards and forwards to the hospital.

We enjoyed our short stay. Room was very nice with a great kitchenette , a small table and 2 chairs. Very clean. We selected because it was not in the center of town but had easy access to travel out to areas nearby. Everyone was very accommodating. Parking spot for our room.

Nice enough place, pitty about the price.

Checkin was a little long as the receptionist was on the phone when I arrived. Was given a 150-200ml bottle of milk to take to the room for coffee milk. Room was tidy and roomy, bed comfortable. I did have to unplug the clock radio to plugin my charger but otherwise all was good 👍. Nice shower in bathroom, great pressure. The only downside was the price which was +10% of the other motels around. Was a good 1 night stay for appointment at the Hospital.

It was very handy to Waikato Hospital which was why we chose this motel. It is on a main road so a bit noisy but our unit had double glazing which made it somewhat quieter.

Very nice place to stay. Only downside is the (road) noise - yes we did have the windows closed. Not a show stopper but something to be aware of.

Clean, convenient to hospitals, noisy road but good double glazed soundproofing. Paved area at lower end of of northern first floor stairs unsafe - area 'dished' for stormwater drainage within about 20cm of bottom step - trip/fall hazard. Poor lighting in 'kitchen' area of our unit.
