We liked that we were close to services we needed during our stay. I would have liked a bigger shower area, I bent down to get shampoo and whacked my head on shower handle. Or maybe im too big??? Hehe.

The name is misleading-ocean inn on ocean view road- it’s nowhere near the ocean. The shower was either scalding hot or freezing cold. Very thin walls. Yes, there’sa guest laundry, but $20??? It is very clean, though, looks like recent remodel, and for basic overnighting it’s ok

The room wasn't fully prepared as one would expect for a true wheelchair accessible unit as requested - HOWEVER - after speaking with management afterwards they are taking into consideration our suggestions to make the room and arrangements more suitable in the future. They appreciated our feedback.

Not a lot around the general area, but the motel itself was great. Looks a little tired outside but the rooms are really nice. Clean, fresh feel, excellent bedding and friendly staff. Would recommend for business travelers or those not needing to be in the heart of the city.

Quick 1-night stay

Overall we are happy with the stay. Free parking, friendly manager. We appreciated the laundry facilities, but feel that NZD 20 was expensive for using the washing machine and dryer. I have stayed at other hotels with similar laundry facilities, they charged a nominally reasonable fee of NZD 2 - 4 for washing and drying respectively.
