Good Value for money and Close to everything
Great location, close to many restaurants and all of the supermarkets, good parking. Check in was fairly simple and straight forward, I was on the first room of the ground floor right outside the carpark, I thought it would be noisier but it was fine. Room was comfortable, and well priced. No air conditioning or temperature control so the room was very warm, My stay was in mid November, The TV only had free view and only 8 channels.

Friendly but lock hearted
Good value. Couldn’t get the locks to work on the door but that’s probably because we were being dumb. Spacious and staff were friendly

Room was clean and fine for our one night visit to Whanganui. Reception unavailability on telephone for lost item was a nuisance. Calling and leaving numerous messages within the "office hours" was frustrating.

Loved the room. Shower was great. Towels were big and fluffy. However, there was a fire in the restaurant and had not been rebuilt as of yet. There was plenty of Clubs, restaurants and stores within walking distance. There was also a bus stop right outside. Overall, I was very pleased with my stay.

Good rate for short stays
Very spacious renovated room. King bed comfortable. Plenty of parking spaces. Hotel lobby and corridor a bit dated but the reasonable room rate compensates for it. Close to supermarkets and gas stations.

The cleaners are super lovely. The reception not as lovely. The showers need a good proper clean, as they look like there’s another species growing on them. And the walls need some dusting/ cleaning.
