I appreciate you get what you pay for but a 'hot' shower is mandatory. Everything else was good for the price.
Great little place to stay for a couple nights. Really great for the price a very friendly staff. Adjacent to the Shortland pub where there is really good food
It was very handy to stay at for a night. Everyone was quite in the motel.
Having a TV, microwave etc and seperate female amenities was good
Bar staff were helpful and friendly
Cheap price was good, but limited hours for check in & check out were frustrating (& staff weren’t onsite when I needed to check out and had to be called in)
The location was pretty handy. The room basic but for the money reasonable. The pub, staff and food were great. We had to pay $100 room key/damage deposit which we were not aware of until checking in. Would have been good to know prior.
A very comfortable, clean room. Set off the street so it was quiet. Take away menu from the hotel was delicious. Staff were very friendly. We wouldnt hesitate to return on our next stop over.
THe location was very close to our family in Shortland. Lovely bed.
We didn't enjoy the dark grey walls and black carpet, but I see other rooms are painted a pleasant cream, so wé'll take a cream room next time.
It was great. Quiet, lovely and cool, clean,secure all good no problems at all. Staff are great very friendly. Would stay again tomorrow if needed. Many thanks.
Please do not stay here. Price horrible for the conditions of the room. Pictures show the front of establishment (pub area) which looks quiet nice, however the back area where the actual rooms are looks like a drug-house. The place is called "hotel" but it's actually a motel, as it says in the front of the room's building. In addition, the mold/smell inside the room and hallways was digusting at best. My partner and i could not sleep as our throat hurt from pungent mold smell. All night the walls were wet and sweating. Not to mention the poor quality of the bed and the "furniture" in the room. For the love of god just go somewhere else to sleep one night. I would consider my car instead.
