The room was spacious (Room 10), good amenities, netflix, a good supply of tea & coffee, and a comfy bed. The only dislike was the 3:37am train that woke me up.

Spacious, reasonably-priced, clean and comfortable accommodations for our family of 4. Nice kitchenette and clean bathroom with amenities. Pleasant front desk staff. Quick drive into town for dining options. Was a quick stop over in our travels, and met all our needs. . There is some road/train noise but it wasn't too bothersome for pur family. Overall a very nice and well-maintained place to stay.

Very nice room. Friendly staff. Overpowering smell of cleaning fluids on arrival meant we had to mop floor and leave doors open

Very convenient location. Nice staff. Very clean room. Road next to motel, however, is heavily trafficked by large trucks through-out the day and night. So it was very loud.

Perfect last minute stay! Even though we did not plan on cooking, loved that the kitchen was fully stocked with all utensils and dishware. There was even a pint of fresh milk in the fridge for coffee or tea. Appreciated the bottle of water and the Whitaker’s treat when we checked in. The food recommended at Stoked Eatery was gourmet and Bosco for breakfast just hit the spot. Only suggestion is to have a little stool to place shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the shower. Thank you!

A nice place to sleep
My favorite thing about Waitomo Lodge is the toiletries. It would be nice if there was a shelf in the shower area to place said toiletries. They were eco friendly and of good quality. The air conditioner works very good too. The only down part is at night, the neighbor’s security light shown brightly outside our window. It came on right as we were going to sleep.

Check in was easy, our room was very clean, the shower was great, and the WiFi worked well. The larger of the two beds was softer than i like, so I slept on the other firmer bed.
