Situated in a quieter part of Paihia town centre was really lovely. Was easy to walk into town and you have everything around you. Only issue my partner and I experienced was the cleanliness and smell in our room. We had to air it out as it smelt like no one had been in it for weeks. We had to spray the room with our own fragrances to help. Room did have everything from cutlery, fans, iron ironing board and hairdryer. Tv had access to YouTube and Netflix. Shower and toilet were clean. Everything is a bit outdated but we weren’t bothered by that. Happy but I wouldn’t have high expectations when staying here.

The location is probably the best thing about this motel - just off the bay, so it's affordable, but close enough to walk to everything. King bed was comfy.

Great location for visiting Waitangi Treaty Grounds and Russell via the ferry (as well as Paihia). Staff were friendly and helpful. The only minor negative was the water pressure in the shower was a little on the weaker side.

The room was clean and comfortable. Location was great. Couldn’t find a plug in the bedroom to use fan provided, which meant it was very warm overnight.

I liked the situation. Did dislike the fact that there were 8 unsafe stairs that had to be climbed to the unit. Each time you vacated. Also the shower had a large step to get into which caused me to fall getting out of it. I am 80 hrs old.
