The building is kept very clean and clean. It's a bit far from the city center, but it's just a 10-minute walk. I like that the owner is so kind.

I had made a muck up with my accomadation they were extremely helpful sorting my mess out. I have stayed in many motels over the world This would have to be the one of the cleanest, fully equipped unit with plenty of parking available. Comfortable Accomadation .fast internet for me to finish all my work . I will be back

Basic studio accommodation but expected for the price considering Taupo is a resort town. We were intending to stay for one night but extended for another. Went to have a shower late on second night and no hot water. Pretty bad considering it was winter and a hot shower was definitely needed. Still no hot water next morning and the best we got when leaving was “eh, sorry bro”.

The motel is centrally located and is walking distance to most Amneties, including the beach. The rooms are spacious and very clean. It has very modern furniture and accessories, desktop burner and dishwasher. We stayed in Unit 3 and the aircon and TV were excellent. Parking space is also available for free. The surrounding gardens are beautiful. The hosts are excellent.

There was a muck up (mine!) with my booking. No dramas, a room was found for me, and it was stunning. Best bathroom ever! Quiet, clean and comfortable. The room was light and easily accessible. The gardens around the motel were beautiful and well maintained.

Lovely motel, warm and cosy room. Shower had awesome pressure. Very clean and tidy. Great amenities in the room. Surprised to have own dishwasher. Walking distance to town which suited us very well. Friendly hosts.
