Warm and personable host. The rooms are spacious, clean and the kitchen has more than enough mod cons to make your dinner. The beds are perfect. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely again. Great location for seeing the Redwood Forest and popping into town.

Outstanding customer service! We were running late past the 7pm check-in window and kept in communication with the motel. The front desk agent was incredibly accommodating, told us to drive safely, and stayed positive the whole time. I am so grateful for their kindness and highly recommend staying here.

What a great motel this is. The manager and staff were really great and saw to all our needs. We were here for the Waitangi weekend. The room was very clean and tidy. Clean sheets and the usual amenities. We could cook our meals here if we liked as it had a 2 stove burner. The location is the best as it is opposite the Rotorua central mall and walking distance to the city centre so really close to everything. The only gripe was that there was no Aircon though they did have a ceiling fan.

Nice friendly owners and very welcoming. Rooms clean and beds clean and comfy. Worst part; paper thin walls between mine and adjoining room. They were a family from overseas who arrived back to their room at 2am each morning, waking up everyone as they walked upstairs to their room. They then proceeded to talk loudly, play music and run a spa bath at 3am. Complained to the owner on first night, she sympathized and gave me her phone number, when I rang it the second night at 2am, her phone was off. No one could help with the noise. The next day I was wrecked at work. Wouldn’t stay here ever again.

This was not our first choice of motel as we had to find another once arriving at Rotorua as our booked motel had no hot water. Jodi was fantastic her customer service was excellent nothing was a problem, turned out this was a nicer motel than the one we had booked ,clean tidy modern and the location is perfect. It's right opposite the Central Mall in Rotorua with everything on hand. All facilities were in walking distance even bus stop round the corner , we didn't even need to hire a car, would definitely recommend this motel value for money.
