WARNING: Bed Bugs!
WARNING: BED BUGS. My wife and I stayed one night (December 27, 2017) at this hotel (room #3), and while we had to leave quickly to catch a flight the next morning, I began to find red welts on my stomach. In less than a day, I discovered many red welts with tiny bite marks. It is now January 2, and half my stomach, side and back are riddled with swollen, red bites, many of which have blistered, popped and scabbed. The itching is unbelievable, and there is some pain involved. I’m a wreck. This hotel has bed bugs, at least in room #3. I contacted the hotel three days ago to tell them what I was going through, as well as my belief that they have bed bugs so they could take immediate action. In response, I have received only a confirmation that they have received my email. Nothing more. As far as I know, they have done nothing about it, nor have they alerted the pubic. People are likely continuing to stay in that very room. This is unconscionable. The room was well-appointed and cared for, other than that. Be aware!

Home away from home
This was an incredibly pleasant stay, only exception was the constant presence of ants that went after the water and any sweets on the counter. I would still return knowing this, as the apartment is surprisingly comfortable, cozy and peaceful. The nearby town offers a couple of grocery stores, I signed up for yoga classes the week I was there, the nearby beaches are beautiful. It’s about an hour drive from Auckland, but well worth it; as I do not like big cities. This motel is worth being your home base while exploring Auckland and the surrounding areas.

The motel was a stopover not a destination
The motel was an ideal place to stop for a night. It was very clean and although slightly old fashioned it was spotlessly clean. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Location Required
Had to do some work in the area so was quick access for that. However extremely low standard of fit out, old, messy unkempt property. Wouldn't stay there again, unless absolutely have to. Its a shame, because its only 5 minutes walk to a most scenic and beautiful beach with some lovely eateries in the vicinity.

オーナーがとても親切にしてくださいました！
お部屋も設備もとても良かったです。キッチンも充実し自炊ばかりできました。少し歩けばカウントダウンやニューワールドなどあり便利です。毎朝、ゴミやタオルなどもきれいにしてくださったので感謝してます。またブラウンズベイに行くときには泊まりたいホテルです。
