Top Hotels Near Southward Car Museum in Paraparaumu from NZ$126

"apart from the very very very noisy staircase up to the bedroom, no staff any where when we needed them, not enough cooking utensils in the kitchen, no oven dishes so we could use the oven, we stayed 4 nights and no extra cleaning was done in that time, bed was comfortable and good shower."

"11 parking bays for 40 odd rooms; nobody at reception; our room/bed was not made except for getting clean towels; plenty restaurants nearby."

"The staff were great and the 3 bedroom apartment clean. However there was no cookware other than an old ricecooker and an eletric frypan. There were no pots or bowls. Other the table cutlery there were no kitchen utensils at all. There were no cereal bowls or dessert spoons. There was no blow dryer in the bathroom. No ishcloth, teatowels or dishwashing liquid. No plug for the kitchen sink. This place could be great but lets itself down when it cant provide the very basics. Would not stay again."

"Just ok for 1 night"

"Amazing service - warmly greeted and shown to our room, friendly advice on where to eat and if we had any issues to ring at any time. Good location, quiet, clean and comfortable room."

"Nice little spot, room had everything we needed."

Lack of Privacy and Maintenance: The bathroom door does not close fully, leaving a gap that makes it impossible to have any privacy. The sliding door handles are broken, and there is no exhaust fan in the bathroom, meaning odors spread throughout the entire unit. Health and Safety Hazards: The motel provides plates with gold-rimmed designs that catch fire in the microwave—an incredibly dangerous oversight.
