Woodlands Motel

Comfortable bed, good shower and toilet. Clean as. Friendly staff

Nothing

I liked the location

Sad to see the trees taken down and having to look at that is quite sad

Close to town.

Was a little cold in the bathroom

It was nice and comfortable and affordable. We booked last minute for a Tangi, and it had everything we needed.

It just had a small heater in the room, that took a while to heat up, so recommend turning that on before going out, we were in a rush so didn't think about.

Nice and quiet. Units are well back from the road. The motel staff obliged my request for 2 single beds and they were comfortable with electric blankets too. TV had all the sky channels we could have wanted. Everything was clean. Reception staff was very friendly and helpful. The heater worked well heated the room quickly. There was an undercover walkway up to the unit so we didn't get wet trying to get the key in the door as there was torrential rain yesterday.

I was sad to see that all the big trees in the property surrounding the motel completely decimated which left the motel gardens looking a bit bare. Not quite as woodsy as it used to look. However, we weren't spending any time outside so it didn't effect our experience

Great value for money and lovely staff

It's a little tired, but that reflects in the price. Your can't have it both ways

It is situated well within walking distance if the town centre but still secluded

Was close to town

Wasn't good for price maybe lower price til spa is running

Shared toilet facilities which were not well advertised in the promo.

Very happpy with location and room.Except couldn't get sound on TV

All good.

Location was perfect, central to town centre. Clean and offered us option to have two single beds.. comfy warm sleep Value for money, wifi and sky great

Good location

Holes în floor covered with lino, very bad smell, lots of bugs, a bit run down

.

shower box was very small, disgusting that you fill the jug for water in the toilet area

Location is excellent , we were away from everyone so our noise didn’t keep everyone up , thankfully ..

Flooring in our unit was a bit stink . But suited us fine .

I booked this for my friend Paul so I am just going by what he told me. He really enjoyed his stay and said the staff were fantastic.

the big whanau room needs alot work holes in the ground covered by just linel in the kitchen room and showers cheap

It was good for location of town shopping

The shower was blocked and had to be serviced. Toilet was blocked during the middle of the night early morning and could not be fixed in time to accommodate myself my husband or our children for morning toileting purposes.

Good location, comfortable beds and clean.

Old cottage which is in need of renovation, no insulation or double glazing so cold in winter.

Close to family and everything walking distance & iverall good experience

Love the location, easy access to the city center. Plenty of parking. Staff was very helpful. Easy check in and check out

location

Friendly staff & environment

I liked everything was nothing to not like

First time staying here and it was very peaceful within a nice setting and really comfortable beds. Great value for price and off the road which was great. It was handy to the town center.

I couldn't connect to the wifi and had to step outside to make connection but when I got back to the room, it had dropped again. It might have been where I located (far end) of the motel. It didn't really bother me in the end.

The room and the facilities.

Pest control in the kitchen.

Comfortable well appointed room

Nothing

Comfortable bed , tv and coffee tea provided very quiet surroundings, and clean facilities

I would prefer more lighting down the driveway that is long and quite dark at night time

Quiet

I should have booked a room with bathroom and kitchenette. I will do that next time

Woodlands Motel was fit for purpose, with clean, comfortable rooms and super friendly staff. Spa and pool was a bonus.

Price.

This place needs to be renovated or knocked down. From the moment you hit the massive pothole in the driveway entry until you find the spiders in the showers, you feel like this place may have been ok in the 1980s. The room itself feels less like accommodation and more like a forgotten time capsule. The ceiling looks like it’s holding onto a few questionable building materials from a bygone era, and not in a charming, heritage kind of way. Every surface has a story, none of them comforting. The bed deserves special mention. It’s not so much lumpy as strategically designed to eject you if you dare to turn over. Sleeping becomes less of a rest and more of a nightly balancing act. The bathroom really leans into the theme. There’s a mouldy plastic flower in the shower, which might be intended as decoration but ends up feeling more like a warning. Look closer and you realise the flower isn’t the only thing growing in there. Above the shower is a patch repair where someone has clearly had a go with a paintbrush and a dream. One coat, brush strokes going in every possible direction, like a modern art piece titled “That’ll Do.” Staff seemed completely uninterested, which in a strange way fits the overall atmosphere. It’s like everyone has quietly agreed to stop trying. If you’re chasing a nostalgic experience, this delivers. Just not the kind anyone would willingly pay for.

Location was good. The kitchen was well equipped. Was really happy to be able to cook. Oven and stove fantastic.

The floor had sunk in where the dining table is and also the bathroom.

Close to town....comfortable

Outside bit tired

The location was handy to town, the room was nice and tidy and beds were comfortable. We showed up after hours and it was nice to see and envelope with our name and room key. Overall would recommend this place and I would definitely go back too. Nga mihi Woodlands

The bathroom was a little dirty. There was no plug in the bathroom.

Convenient. Spacious.

Dated.

Comfortable stay, all good, very friendly hosts, recommend 👌

Location and value was great

Shower box was small and door wouldn’t close properly

Comfortable and clean

The staff were extremely friendly and polite.

Great

Lovely friendly staff, Super comfy bed and really close to town.

Clean towels and sheets. Nice man on the front desk. (Please read rest of review).

There’s one ladies shower and toilet and the shower head bracket fell off the wall when using the shower, falling on me and leaving a screw sticking out. The pans in the kitchen were very scratched, we ended up with bits of the non-stick in our rice, and there was only one bowl to use. The walls are paper thin and, whilst not the property’s fault, we had someone coughing and spluttering in the room next door until 3am so did not sleep well. When finally quiet, the room was quite warm so we tried using the fan provided, however it was broken. Also, the woodland behind has been cut down. Appreciating it was Easter weekend, I’ve paid similar amounts (and less) for holiday parks with better facilities and I’m afraid I wouldn’t currently recommend. I’ve seen responses on other reviews saying it will be done up during the quiet period and hope this goes some way to improving it.

Cómodo, fácil acceso, comunicación clara, baños y habitación muy limpios

Faltaba limpieza en la cocina

Did not realise there would be no arrangements for booking in the room .

Close to downtown and to the Stone store. Ample parking. Clean room and facilities. À lovely pool and spa area that we were unfortunately not able to use. We were in the super budget option and so for the price it was excellent.

The place felt a little tired and a lot of the surrounding woodland seemed to have been cut down!

Helpful staff - very pleasant and welcoming

It is an older establishment but we was perfectly adequate for our needs.

The location. Walking distance to town.

The place is very run down. Understand new owners have plans.

Close to Kerikeri business centre

A little dated

Die Lage war super, sehr idyllisch

Bei 5 Nächten wurde das Zimmer nicht einmal gesäubert und man weiß ja, wieviele Haare in der Zeit auf dem Biden landen. Es waren überall Spinnenweben, im gemeinsamen Badezimmer, in der Küche und sie wurden auch nicht einmal entfernt, sondern wurden immer mehr. Das war sehr unschön. Sehr hellhörig. Es hängt alles von den Nachbarn ab.

Everything facilities were accessible clean and tidy people were friendly as and we wanna say sorry for being noisy buggers. Thanx for having us x

Location and value

It’s fairly basic but the price reflects this so if you’re treating it as a place to sleep then this is great, if you like a luxury stay then this isn’t the place for you.

Nette Dame an der Rezeption. Mein Zimmer hatte alles, was nötig war. Ich fand das Bett bequem. Für Kerikeri echt gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

An der ein oder anderen Stelle wären ein paar Renovierungen sicher nicht verkehrt.

No

Location & price are very good

The units are obviously getting a bit shabby but you get what you pay for - the large weta in the room caused a bit of drama with my wife

Budget accommodation- good value for money. Good space for parking and clear instructions for after hours.

Rented this during autumn so no problem. Oil heater for winter 😯🥶
