A nice clean and friendly New Zealand motel. We chose it because of the reviews and it's location - short drive from the airport, but close to the city for a morning appointment. It was exactly as the reviews described it. Fresh muffins on arrival, simple relaxed checkin and departure. We were a little delayed and arrived just after the... More

The Service is Incredible! Right from when we booked we got a friendly email from Pat & Bernie asking if we needed any help with planning what to do in Auckland, they kindly sent us an envelope full of brochures which was an amazing help as we found some places we didnt even know existed.

After a long flight from the USA, we just wanted to sleep and this motel was perfect. Pat was wonderful and even greeted us when we showed up after hours. The welcome muffins were exactly what we needed. I also liked the free wifi. More

We stayed in this modern motel for one night in passing (driving from Northland to King Country) but could easily have stayed more. The room was spacious and well laid out. The owners really went the extra mile to make us feel welcome. The location may not suit everyone - it's good for the airport, not so good for the... More
