Aotea Lodge
Staff were nice to deal with. Rooms are basic but it was what we wanted. Bed was very nice to sleep in and there was no noise from other units. Units are well off the road so no noise there either. Having units so far from the road makes parking so much safer for your car overnight. Would stay here ...

Wallaceville Motor Lodge
I stayed for 15 nights and overall the stay was great, clean room, serviced each day if required, staff very helpful, with parking outside your room. It would have been great to have SKY on in the room for the sport, otherwise I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
