Riverfront Cottage Waipu

8/10 Good

"The bach was clean and the location awesome. We are happy with the typical kiwi bach and everything was comfortable. With the bringing your own linen and doing the cleaning, we thought the price was a bit steep. Enjoyed the balcony with the lovely view and the old school decor was cute. The steps really need addressing as I slipped over on them as it was raining when we left and got some good bruises."

Motel Six

8/10 Good

"lean and tidy. Facilities are dated and could do with an upstairs. But very affordable and central location."
