Reviewed Dec 28, 2025This is the best motel we’ve ever stayed in. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the room was exceptionally spacious and spotless. The water pressure was amazing — after a full day of exploring, the thing we looked forward to most was coming back to the room for a hot shower to wash away all the fatigue. I would highly recommend this motel to anyone visiting Invercargill.
