    safety feature
    parking issue
    bed slant

    ample parking, excellent TV service, strong sense of safety

    The car park filled up quickly at night, making it a hassle to find a spot!!! The bed slant might not suit everyone, potentially impacting sleep quality.

    large glass-walled shower

    Request a room in the back if street noise bothers you. The large glass-walled shower was a fantastic touch!

    spacious room
    complimentary bike hire
    spa bath
    limited cooking facilities

    The room was spacious and spotless, and the complimentary bike hire made exploring so much fun! There’s a nice spa bath and a great option to relax with Sky channels on TV. Just a heads up, the cooking facilities are a bit limited, but overall, it was a fantastic stay! 😊

    Comfort and Cleanliness at an Affordable Price

    The room was super clean, props to the cleaners! The comfy bed and decent bathroom made it easy to relax. Grabbed an in-room breakfast which was a nice touch. Only had some noise from the street, but it wasn’t a dealbreaker.

    complimentary bike hire

    It was just an optimal selection for a temporary stay in New Plymouth with good price-quality ratio. The complimentary bike hire was an unexpected bonus, making it easy to explore the area. Try to request a room towards the back to avoid any street noise.

    nice kitchenette
    limited amenities
    short stay

    The room was spotless with all the essentials. The bed was super comfy, and I loved the fresh-scented pillows! The kitchenette was surprisingly nice, and amenities were top-notch. Totally felt at home! Location was perfect, just a short stroll to the ocean front. Can’t believe how welcoming the staff were, though I wish I could’ve stayed longer!

    great location but parking is tight

    The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly, going out of their way to assist us with our needs. We appreciated the cleanliness and tidiness of the facilities, which made us feel comfortable throughout our stay. the central location allowed easy access to numerous attractions, making it convenient for sightseeing. We also enjoyed the complimentary bike hire for exploring the area.

    Finding parking was a challenge as the lot filled up quickly at night.
