Kingswood Manor Motel
They called with my late arrival when I rang them to say I'd be there after hours. I used the hot plate and pot provided. It's not brand new or luxurious but is comfortable and spacious and I'll stay there again

Quality Hotel Oceans Tutukaka
The room was not great. AC was old, carpet was stained, bathroom sink was really slow to drain. Staff were very good and understanding. We only stayed one of the three nights booked. Will not go back.

Aaron Court Motel
Friendly and helpful, let us in as soon as she could. Clean and quiet because at the end of a cul de sac yet convenient for going places. The hob took some working out how to use! The bathroom and shower door arrangement tight!
