Deco City Motor Lodge
Apparently ‘overbooked’ the Accessible Room we had booked & FULLY PAID for weeks prior to our visit. Fulltime wheelchair user and offered us a standard ground floor room! Don’t even check in. Requested them to locate an Accessible Room: roll in shower, rails by toilet etc that we had already booked ...

Swiss-Belhotel Napier
The room was spacious, and the bed was comfortably sized for two people. However, the parking charges were slightly expensive compared to other accommodations I stayed at during my 19-day road trip across the North Island. Overall is good !!
