Disappointing
Dirty bedspread and toilet when we arrived. The owner sorted it all out immediately when we complained though. Fair bit of traffic noise, especially early morning from trucks accelerating out of the corner on the main road. Large unit with a spa bath and lots of space.

One more happy stay on our tour of the S Island
Our one night stay was extremely comfortable. Having ourselves been in the motel business for a number of years,( now retired) we must say that this motel was spotless and the fittings etc top quality. Certainly a place to stay on visiting Temuka. Norman and Carole, a happy couple
