Older, but comfortable and clean.

Pros: Management were friendly and very obliging......nothing appeared to be a problem.
Cons: Nothing very much. The units probably need refurbishing, however this would only be a superficial improvement.
Location: The location is away from the central part of the city, but provides easy access for travellers coming from the direction of Queenstown.
An older establishment, but one that was clean, well-equipped and spacious in a time where most of the lower-to-mid priced motels are cramped and generally not as well set up.

It was an excellent stay. My wife and I had no car available, so Helen (who is in charge of the motel) called one of her friends who came down from Dunedin. Helen and her friend took us for a very nice walk in the Bluff area. She did much more for us than one can expect.
