Average to below average facilities (old - needs desperate make over! Especially the rooms). Bar service was poor at times. Front desk (reception) communication was awful due to extremely poor English speaking ability! Turangi was not very exciting. Won't recommend this Motel unless you're happy with below average accommodation (rooms especially). Beef and Chicken burgers were fantastic - well done. Room service was a bonus - thank you.

Units are old, but very clean and spacious. Excellent grounds for pets. Walking track alongside the river was natural but lovely. Restaurant on site. Friendly helpful staff.

Steps to units unsafe when wet. Toilet size for tiny people. Having to ask for towels for 1 room and being told the cleaners left the rooms fully supplied, then accused of having 2 extra towels. Other than that, it was ok
