Location was perfect, and room was clean and reasonably comfortable for our needs. Motel needs to upgrade bedding and facilities as they didn’t exactly reflect what was shown on the website.

Value for money as cheap and cheerful. Clean & tidy. Staff were helpful when we needed extra flannels. No noise. Would love to go back when the pool is back in service. Easy to find and only an $18 Uber ride to Eden Park for the concert,

This property has false advertising. It shows a nice pool with seating, but the pool was empty, and appears to have been for some time. Outdoor area very shabby, and there was a large dog next door which barked if it saw you. Front desk stated no pets. Unit was very clean and comfortable, but no air conditioning.
