The accommodation suited our needs. We all had a bed each. Bathroom was spacious and towels were renewed every day. The owners were friendly, contacted me when we were late for check in. Overall it was a convenient stay, close to everything we needed.

Very close to shopping centre. The road outside is a motorway on ramp, so need to be careful if you have young children. Upstairs and downstairs rooms.

Great stay, the room was perfect. We walked to our restaurant for tea which I probably should have done more research it was a little rough but certainly not the motels fault.

6/10 Good

We could take our pet which was very nice. The lady at reception was a bit grumpy from day one. Did not feel too comfortable around her. The man was lively and the cleaning staff were nice. Location bit far from centre of things in Mt manganui. 5_10 mins drive to beach. Not walking distatnce. All ear8ng places are walking distance, so cant walk much.
