The location was ideal: close to town with convenient access to transportation. Parking was a breeze, with ample space and easy manoeuvrability. The rooms and kitchen facilities were clean and well-equipped, providing all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The two bedrooms provided ample drawer and wardrobe space with enough hangers, making them perfect for an extended stay. The beds were comfy, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The hosts were exceptional, meeting our every need. They transformed an unfortunate booking issue we had with another place into a positive and memorable experience, extending our stay from 3 to 9 nights. They frequently checked in to ensure our satisfaction, showing genuine care and concern for their guests. Their kindness and attentiveness made us feel truly welcome. Overall, they were outstanding hosts, and we sincerely appreciated everything they did to make our stay memorable on such a significant occasion for us.

Breakfast not required! Friendly helpful host, lovely staff, a relaxing Holiday venue, very close to the coastal walkway, also New Plymouth City and not too far from Pukekura Park. For a person with a disability, our Motel Unit was ideally situated on the ground floor and our car park close by! 😄 Host supplied a shower chair and non slip shower mat! Comfy chairs to ‘lounge in’ and watch TV. It was also very quiet, no outside noise disturbances. Excellent!

First up, the cleaning staff should be commended for the excellent job they do. When a hotel room has everything sparkling clean, from the glasses to the bathroom, it says a lot about how good the cleaners are. The woman on reception was friendly. The bed was comfortable and the linen clean. The room had plenty of room to move about and the bathroom was a good size.

During his stay at the motel while working in the area, our data technician reported numerous positives: ample parking, proximity to the city, a strong sense of safety and security, excellent TV service, a comfortable bed, and accommodating late check-out due to his late work hours; he expressed a definite intention to stay there again.
