Chris was amazingly helpful and hospitable. The cottage we stayed in was very run down, but we all slept better than we had the whole trip. It gave us a real homey feel, "just like grandma's". Kids loved the animals.

My family of three enjoyed over 1 night stay, we were greeted by the friendly owner who kindly gave us some advise about the local area.

The man who checked us in was very nice. Took the time to tell us where the glow worm cabes were and gave a map how to get there. Brought us milk for coffee and helped with the washing facilities. Would reccomend :)

Decent size room with mini kitchenette. Owner was super helpful and friendly. Quiet and green space, just off Hwy 3 heading toward the caves. So a great spot for a night if you're exploring the caves. I knocked a point off for the terrible shower (very weak pressure at a comfortable temperature, an old version of the model where the on and hot/cold are built into the shower head, awful design)

The owner met us at check in and spent time answering all our queries about road conditions, places to eat and laundry facilities. He was so friendly & helpful. Our son had a great swim in the pool & loved it! The summer weather has been terrible in this area so the garden looks a bit wild, however the room was clean & comfortable & met the requirements of our stay. The motel is very convenient to the main highway, Waitomo, Te Kuiti & Otorohonga.
