"Have stayed here on two occasions now and will recommend it to anyone. The rooms are well maintained, modern and spotless. Their breakfast service provides many choices and is excellent. The price is also extremely reasonable. Its location is very handy to town in a quiet neighbourhood."

"Spent two nights here with my family. Rooms have been recently refurbished to a very high standard. Each room has a big cat theme so not the usual dull motel experience. The owners were excellent and gave us an extra room at no extra charge to allow us to spread out a bit. Motel doesn't have any outdoor areas but there is a big park right next door and Lido swimming complex just along the road. Will definitely visit again."

"Our third stay here. Once again a very friendly warm welcome. Service and room presentation excellent as always. Very convenient and short walk to city centre. We have no hesitation in recommending this motel to anyone stopping in Palmerston North."

"Thank you so much for our great stay, we turned up with out booking but were offered a fantastic unit, very clean and modern with lots of well appointed extras. Nice to have plenty of heating and extra bedding. Very friendly welcome so will recommend to anyone heading to Palmerston North."

"Clean, comfortable unit with modern decor and fittings. Our only negative comment was that the room was a little tight on space for breakfast but this was only because we had such a big supportive bed. Just meant we had to rearrange a little but with such a nice bed it was a happy compromise. Lovely people and they even found some missing jewellery and got it back to us safe and sound. Nice walk to town. Recommended."

"For me this was the ideal location. Just minutes from the CBD but all I had to do to get some exercise was walk out of the motel, turn left, diagonally cross the playing field next door (head to the stand of gum trees) and I was in the Esplanade with access to walks by the beautiful river. Park Road becomes Botanical Road (turn left out of the motel) a main through route, which also made getting out to the airport, Fielding and Wanganui painless. Despite that it is the quietest motel I've stayed in in Palmerston North. The accommodation was very pleasant, the owner friendly and helpful, the continental breakfast plentiful. I will be back."
