"Easy check in. We were slightly early but no problem. Very helpful staff who kept the rooms/property spotlessly clean. Would definitely stay again. Handy to town and supermarkets across the road."

While everything about the hotel experience was great, nothing stood out more than the owners Grant and Trudy Smith. Grant is one of those people who makes you feel like you've been friends for years even though you only met a few minutes ago. Trudy was just as personable. Whether it be getting restaurant recommendations or borrowing bikes to ride on the New Plymouth Coastal Walkway, they were always ready to be helpful.

Front desk staff was very friendly and informative. Suggested some activities we hadn't found during our search. Really enjoyed seeing the wind wand and walking the boardwalk.

The entire staff could not have been more accommodating and pleasant. They were great in communication before we left. It was a great location about 15 min walk from so many local points.

Very accommodating. We arrived in New Plymouth early. We went to the motel before check in time. The owner allowed us to check in early. The kitchen facilities was in good condition. Very clean and well maintained.

Really clean and great amenities in the room. Was disappointed to have to leave after just the two nights since I knew the next place that I would be staying at wouldn’t be so nice.
