Before we arrived, we knew that this motel was being predominately used as emergency housing (this wasn't the case when we booked mid 2023) however the motel manager did everything possible to honour all the bookings for this weekend in spite of the situation she found herself in. She contacted us well in advance, explained what was going on, and gave an assurance that our booking would still go ahead. On arrival, yes the property is run down and needs maintenance but our room, while obviously under renovation (and occupied by a long term tenant who had vacated for the weekend) was clean and the welcome was warm and the complimentary bbq dinner and breakfast was welcomed and went a long way towards making up for the drop in standards that was expected.

Felt rather unsafe as a 73 year old single female single traveller, lots of loud arguing from the unit next door, stayed only two nights but this was quite constant. Childrens toys , bikes and ride on bikes scattered, which made me thing it was a Motel used for social housing. Sad fact that these times are, I do believe that either the Motel direct or the provider in this case Expeditor, should or must inform the customer booking an Hotel , Motel or any other type of accommodation of this situation, so they are informed and have a choice of staying or not. Very disappointing., Will never stay there again.

Staff are likeable, the housekeepers were friendly and helpful, it is an easy driving distance to the CBD and a good walking distance to Pukekura Park. Overall, the place needs a lot of maintenance. There are a lot of permanent residents, one of whom was singing and walking loudly above our room in the middle of the night. We lost a lot of sleep and moved rooms the next day, but the second room was not as nice as the first. Would stay elsewhere next time we are in NP.

It was a good price and close to center of town. Rooms were tired and run down but clean and functional. The motel was used for social housing and was very noisy until about midnight. The police showed up one morning because of a domestic. So it was ok but we felt a bit uneasy with the other things going on.
