Voor deze prijsklasse wordt er veel meer verwacht als Booking.com klant
Pros:

Ruime kamer, erg netjes, goeie bedden

Cons:

Amper 1 tubetje douchegel (zeer klein), amper 1 champoo (ook zeer klein) voor 2 personen. Wel 2 extra gekregen na zwaar aandringen aan de receptie. Ontbijtbuffet (Continental breakfast voor 24,5 Nz dollar, zeer weinig keuze uit buffet en niet vers. Omelet van de warme keuken (33 NZ dollar) wel lekker en voldoende, maar de dame die ons in de ontbijtzaal bediende, was zeer onvriendelijk; alsof ze erg tegen haar zin er werkte (zuchten en de borden voor ons ploffen zonder iets te zeggen).

Great location for onward journey and great breakfast
Pros:

Staff were lovely and it was great to be able to use the laundry. The breakfast was amazing.

Cons:

It’s more set up for business people and there was no way to prepare food so the breakfast was welcome but had to go out for dinner. It’s a minor thing but worth knowing if you are expecting more of a motel.
