It was walking distance to town
It was dirty, dated the roof was peeling, the heater, electric blanket or hair dryer didn't work .. there was no one in the office to voice our concerns to... Only one blanket on the bed and with no heater and a lumpy hard bed we didn't have a good sleep...
Location was close to everything
Nice& tidy plus comfortable
There was blood on carpet
Close to the township comfortable bed
Nothing it was all good for the money we paid last minute trip!
Loved the close access to town
I requested down stairs for children but got upstairs
Close to shops and restaurants,
Not alot of space for a family unit
Great service
All good keep up the good service
Although we arrived later than expected we were warmly greeted and given good information. The room was clean and tidy, with all expected extras. The room had a heater, warming the room almost instantly.
Im a repeat customer who wanted my family to experience the facility.
Hot water capacity to improve and AC but not really a complaint but a suggestion
Location was close to where we needed It was warm and cozy
Very clean comfortable
N/A
Nothing.
Smelt funky. Dirty. Nothing worked. No heating or spare blankets. Bed was uncomfortable..
Comfortable
The room size, own kitchenette separate toilet and shower. Very nice size for small family.
Nothing to fault.
Wifi good.
Cup was Tea stained, Toilet switch broken, loose, concerned about electrocution. Shower handle loose, had trouble turning for temperature.
Location
Staff not very helpful, we weren’t given any milk.
I.liked the fact that there was a spa pool available at the place
People were heard speaking on their phone ealy in the morning which woke us up
The vibe of the place
The room next door was extremely loud and disruptive. I tried calling reception multiple times to report the lack of noise control, but no one ever answered the phone. Time was around 11:40pm.
Great Stay
Location was great
The pillows could be a bit softer
Able to cook a meal
Pan needs to be replaced as it is warped. Some channels on the tv was out of tune, tv had no remote
La cama era cómoda, la ducha funcionaba muy bien y la ubicación es excelente para recorrer el extremo norte de la Isla Norte, incluyendo Cape Reinga y Ninety Mile Beach. Además, el establecimiento dispone de una piscina exterior y un spa de uso común en una caseta independiente.
La habitación, anunciada como “Deluxe” de 25 m², resultó ser mucho más pequeña de lo esperado. Todo era muy escaso: no había armario ni perchas, el menaje de cocina era mínimo y apenas había espacio para guardar o dejar cosas. El lavabo del baño también era tan pequeño que resultaba muy incómodo de usar.
The motel looked to be the best option of limited choices in Kaitaia.
Unfortunately the next door neighbour has a very loud barking dog
My room was pretty nice, staff are so kind, my room was clean and comfortable
The tight parking
all Great
Room was near to Main Road so lots of noise in early morning.
Clean, good bed,good size room,pool was nice.
Dog next door barking.
They were able to accommodate my request for parking right outside our room and ground level accommodation by putting us in older accommodation, supposed to be in newer part of Motel. Had everything we needed, very very comfortable, didn't mind the older decor cos they met our requests. Excellent hassle free stay, party of 3.
Close to beach and town
Clean & central to town
N/A
Close proximity to the event I was attending
The pool was quite dirty, also in rough condition my son still enjoyed it however the spa was locked so we were not able to enjoy this sadly.
Other workers were in the same facility
one of the rooms remote wouldn't turn the tv down
Friendly helpful staff.
Clean comfortable
Staff were great. Rooms clean
Terrible smell coming from next door. Not hotels fault.
The cleaning department slacked on cleaning the room, cups, knife rack and especially toilet and toilet brush and caddy which were disgusting!
Handy location comfy bed
Too many flies after leaving the door open.. may need flyspray in the rooms
Die Lage des Motels war gut und die Ausstattung entsprach unseren Erwartungen. Es ist alles etwas alt, aber das hat uns nicht gestört.
Leider sind verschiedene Dinge nicht mehr wirklich in Ordnung: wackliger Stuhl, verklemmter Wasserhahn....es wirkte etwas lieblos, nachlässig gewartet.
The stairs. Nextime. I will request the lower rooms, to stay.
Very nice central to everything
Proximity was great 👍
People were great.....and accommodation average .
Just ok .......average ki
Staff are great friendly helpful handy to everything always enjoy pur stay
The Wayfarer was exceptionally clean and comfortable, the staff were great with check-in and later with information, all very good
The weather! But it was unexpected thunderstorms and rain...
Service was top notch View was good Value for money, great for what we needed Location close to main township in walking distance Pool I really appreciated having due to the heat
BED slightly uncomfortable but overall it was a bed to sleep on
Convenience of location, great staff
Very clean and tidy
It was a good size unit
The carpets were so dirty, not sure if it was blood stains or what it was, its radish brown drippings next to the bed and under the Tv. The complete apartment smelled like wet dog too. I wanted to turn around and walk out but was so tired of travelling and decided to just stay the night, but at night realised the beds were also so uncomfortable you can feel the mattress coils coming through.
Good location, central to everything, bed was ok
Bed was a bit hard but ok, a small sofa would have been more comfortable than single armchair
Its location, close to the town centre
Facilities needs updating
Great staff who put us onto a local taxi for our group of 10. Te Hiku Go. Is the best shuttle/taxi/party taxi in town. 100%.
Good Location
It's time for the rooms to be reno
The room and bathroom was clean. TV had sky.
Cold and the heater didn’t work very well. Very thin duvet so not warm. No drawers if hangers to hang jacket or trousers.
Location was perfect because the church I attended to for our meeting was just opposite.
Pillows not good.
Great location, good value.
Big room, bed squashed at one end and curtains didn't completely cover the windows, but ok.
Sehr nettes und meist professionelles Personal! Wünsche oder Fehlendes werden sofort, zuvorkommend und mit sehr viel Einsatz in Ordnung gebracht. Sehr gute Lage. Interessantes, älteres Gebäude und Pub. Gibt Einblick in lokales Leben und geschichtliche Hintergründe. Die Zimmer sind liebevoll im vintage Stil ausgestattet. Grosses Pub, tolle Musik, Aufsteller. Pub serviert Mahlzeiten. Gute Auswahl und passable Küche.
Das Haus ist in die Jahre gekommen und wurde zu einem Teil unprofessionell renoviert. Das muss jetzt wohl das aktuell im Einsatz stehende Personal ausbaden und wettmachen. - Aber darum erst recht: unterstützenswert!!!
Staff Facilities Room
We had a room near the neighbours property who was a dog breeder and had just laid fresh silage in his yard When booking, we recommend asking for a room away from his yard.
