    The room was immaculately clean, in fact, it was the cleanest motel I stayed in. It was super clean and came equipped with everything you could wish for to make a stay comfortable. the room was split into 2 rooms with 2 single beds in one and 1 double in the other, which was perfect for our group.

    The only minor negative feature was that the Wi-Fi connection in the database was a bit slow at times.

    the room was nicely refurbished and well-appointed with all main requirements for a non cooking unit, stayed here for 1 night. a microwave oven, a fridge and a dining area turned out to be good. the good location was close to whangarei anglican church.

    Shame the bathroom was cold.
