Steve went above and beyond to be helpful, accommodating, friendly and welcoming. We had a very late check-in (having driven from Auckland) and found everything perfectly ready for us. Convenient, clean, comfortable. Met our needs perfectly. Will definitely stay again when we are next in Waipukarau.

We stayed in a Family Apartment on our Christmas roadtrip and it had everything we needed as a family of 5 with 3 young kids. Kids room was spacious with 3 comfy beds and a queen bed in the living area for us. Room was somewhat 'compact' and I don't think I'd want to stay for more than 1 night, as it might be a bit on the small side for a longer stay, but it suited us for our 'passing through' stay. The kids absolutely loved the motel pool, which was very safe for our 3 young kids (aged 4, 6 & 8). Was worried that the road noise would be an issue overnight, but we all slept soundly with no noise issues. Would recommend as a clean and tidy option for an overnight stay in Waipukurau.

We had two nights at this motel and it was absolutely worth the money. Whilst it is a wee walk from town, it was quiet, the room was superb and great value for money. Glad we didn’t get a room in the motels in town!! This place was perfect

Friendly staff, Good kitchen and beds etc. Clean and tidy. Able to park right outside. Big pool. We were down for a wedding and this was a great location close to the venue but still close to town. Unfortunately I was too busy icing cakes to use the pool.

On our trip we stopped at this motel for one night. Well, generally speaking, you can't expect much from a motel, but this one beats everything. The only positive thing was the brief, friendly greeting when checking in. You can also overlook the sparse infrastructure of the hotel complex and building, as well as the worn-out furniture that doesn't match. But from the very beginning you needed the air conditioning on full power to be able to bear it in the room, as there was no insulation in the whole apartment. The bathroom was like a refrigerator. There was mold on the floor next to the toilet, the shower head had practically no pressure, the bedside tables and various light switches were sticky! The pillows smelled very unpleasant, my duvet was dirty, and there were long hairs lying around in the bathroom. Early in the morning we packed our things and were glad to leave. We were surprised by the good reviews, because we were of the opinion that it was unacceptable here.
