          Of all the hotels we have stayed in while travelling NZ, this was by far the best. I had a wonderful sleep on the comfy bed and pillows. The bed was comfy, the room was noise-proof and the facilities just perfect. The bathroom was spacious and the kitchen had everything we needed.

          Located directly on highway, old style spring bed, and Spa bath doubled as shower. Shower leaked due to old seals. Bathroom window opened onto rubbish bin area. Heater attached to wall didn't work, maybe its age, but electric blankets and a rather noisy portable heater and blankets were available. Otherwise clean and A-Ok.
