Was in older motel out the back. Dated but very clean. Had an accident away from the Motel and was impressed they refunded some of my remaining prepayment.

Very helpful staff, and we had a quiet stay in one of the "garden" units near the Muritai Street entrance. Clean unit and had everything you needed. Window catches in the kitchen and bathroom were not great.

Good location, walk to beach and a coffee shop. Back courtyard needs a bit of attention and table & chairs.
