The host was very kind. There was a puppy in the hotel and she liked to be close to people.
If I have the opportunity to return to Timaru, I will stay at this hotel again."

Good value for money! The room was bright, the bed was large, comfortable, and clean, and it had a big bathtub and shower facilities. The only minor drawback was that the kettle had plastic components inside.

As a place to rest for a short break on the road, it is relatively simple. It is very close to Caroline Beach. It is not very convenient to walk to the town center. It is not very far to see the blue penguin.

Very friendly receptionist, nothing fancy in the room but had everything that we need. Super comfy bed. The motel is situated in front of the main road, so is very noisy, that didn't bother us. We will be happy to stay again.

The hotel passing by by car in New Zealand is very good, parking is very convenient, the service is also very good, clean and hygienic is particularly satisfactory, the price is more suitable, the surrounding supermarkets can buy vegetables by themselves, and it is a very good trip to come back to cook.
