the place is really clean, the only thing that lets it down is that tv that is smaller than a pc screen and really old and the shower set up allows water to go over the floor and bathroom, just a bad design, but I am sure they know this is an issue, other than that the place is good.

The "hotel" is a motel. It is clean and in a convenient location on the outskirts of town. Walking distance to groceries, takeaways, a cafe etc. Staff were friendly on check in but no staff at all after 6pm so both nights when noise was excessive from another room very late there were no staff to help with that. Bar, restaurant and pool unavailable sadly.

Room was clean and fine for our one night visit to Whanganui. Reception unavailability on telephone for lost item was a nuisance. Calling and leaving numerous messages within the "office hours" was frustrating.

Loved the room. Shower was great. Towels were big and fluffy. However, there was a fire in the restaurant and had not been rebuilt as of yet. There was plenty of Clubs, restaurants and stores within walking distance. There was also a bus stop right outside. Overall, I was very pleased with my stay.

Very spacious renovated room. King bed comfortable. Plenty of parking spaces. Hotel lobby and corridor a bit dated but the reasonable room rate compensates for it. Close to supermarkets and gas stations.
