"We had a wonderful stay at this motel. Everything was exceptionally clean, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. We stayed in a room with one king-size bed and two single beds, which was perfect for our family. One of the highlights was the thermal spa pool located just behind the room. It was so relaxing to soak in the warm thermal pool after dinner—it made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The bathroom is a little dated, but it was very clean and the shower had great water...

"The room had everything needed for an overnight stay. The supermarket was within walking distance. The staff member who checked us in was excellent, friendly and helpful. The spa pool was a very pleasant end to a busy couple of days. We'll definitely stay here again if/when we are back in Rotorua"
