The property was ideally situated for me to take a short stroll to where I was working. But there is no shortage of choice when it comes to, pubs, restaurants, grocery stores, or hardware, and a wide selection of boutique breweries and shops.

Not happy
I have stayed before and this time I was disappointed. The car parking was so bad I will not be going back. It was the car parking that attracted me to this property in the first place. Parking I could not get into, repairs on my car. Never again. Sorry

Our Foreshore unit while clean and well provisioned was a disapointment. Tiny, cramped and more than a little tired, the interior of our unit certianly did not reflect the lovely brick facade outside.

Very convenient motel
Two nights. Room was clean and well serviced with a kitchenette (Microwave, kettle, fridge). Bathroom was clean with a bit of wear in places. The shower gel dispenser was difficult to use properly but nothing major. The motel is well located with only a short walk to many restaurants and a supermarket close by. It is also located close to SH2 which make it easy access.

Not recommended
Our unit had not been cleaned that well - carpet not vacuumed, the bed was uncomfortable, furnishings were worn. The unit needs a total refurbishment.

A handy motel if you're after something that is pragmatic & basic. Even though there are signs of natural wear, the cleanliness & tidiness of the property is spot on. Staff is helpful & lovely. Handy location to shops, restaurants/cafes on Jackson Street & Shoreline cafe, right around the corner from the supermarket & best of all, it's right across the road from the beach & my favourite Seashore Cabaret!

Firstly My wife was surprised there was no SKY TV! We just assumed it was still there. You may want to update the motel guest books in the room.. I notice the last date for this was 2013 on the tv channel page. Your carpark is tight for modern vehicles and some people could be forced to park on the road if you are not in early. I managed to park by the office on the first night because of congestion in the carpark... Yes cars and utes and bigger now than ever or are they? Remember Valiant and Falcon in the 1970s? I guess the motel was built in the late 1970s? .. Just pay to change the kitchen light bulb.. Other wise I enjoyed it

A room here is very expensive for the quality of the room: $156.00 when really it's a $85.00 room at best. Painted concrete block walls, just barely enough amenities in the room. I know it's Wellington but this is overpriced for what it is.....
