Unfortunately, I had to supply a few things to make our stay more comfortable, and it was more like a budget glamping stay than a motel/hotel. Not fazed by it being emergency housing at all, but it does need a good makeover and ant control. Didn't have all cutlery, dinner wear, it's not a kitchenette as such, used the element, but not the benchtop oven (was not clean) very dusty musty, stale cigarette smell.

Comfortable bed, hot shower, wifi, quite end room, dry and warm. For the price and need for the stay, it was fine. We had read the online reviews, so we knew what to expect.

It’s important to update pictures and websites. It was nothing like what we thought we had booked, so that was disappointing.

It was close to town.

Needs a update and deep clean, bathroom fan was disgusting, ants everywhere

Comfortable bed

Stayed in August 2024

Ants on the kitchen sink. No milk. No teatowel. Filthy carpet but we could choose another room but was right by the busy road. Spa doesn't work yet is advertising with it. In general very poor and shabby but the guy was really nice and tried his best. Not extra pillows.

Unfortunately there was a stench that greeted us when we entered the premises.if my partner wasn't so sick I would have vacated on the spot. I went to use the grille and the tray was dirty,stains on the chairs. Bed was comfy clean bathroom.Very disappointed I had booked a 2nd night but just couldn't cope with the smell. We visit regularly and I like to support local businesses, but won't be returning to this property.

Musty smell in room, cleanness of room needs improvement, needs painting and needs more heating. At least one heater needed per room.

Good location, 2 rooms, low price, comfy beds, and a nice hot shower.

Road noise.

Basic, comfortable bed.

The appartment was a little outdated and someone had damaged some furniture and so, which is a shame. The ligthing was a bit poor, perhaps replacing some broken lightbulbs will help (minor fix).

The appartment is located near the main street, however the traffic noise will die down during the night. It has a kitchen, which I didn't use, and a table with chairs to sit at. The manager is a friendly young man, who will help you when needed. The restaurants are within walking distance and sightseeing locations are around, use car. It is not the most luxurious but it will suit your stay for a couple of days with the experience of a small NZL town.

The kitchen was so dated and in many places in dismal repair. I wouldn't have wanted to have created a meal in it. No plug for the vanity. A refresh definitely needed throughout.

Crisp clean and comfortable beds. Shower pressure was great.

Accommodation is run down and in need of a facelift. Holes in the walls, floorboarding coming up and a general lack of cleanliness / care. Photos of the accommodation were misleading

Staff were helpful and friendly, smooth check in process.

Kitchen was not clean at all.

High Pressure Shower

But it was very shabby - holes in the walls, several lights that didn’t go, ripped wall paper, a fridge that was difficult to open, because on carpet, no bowls to eat cereal from, an insecure , in-stuck piece of vinyl in the entrance doorway that could cause a trip., burn mark on floor vinyl. It was pretty horrible to be honest. I realise the motels may be used for emergency housing - and good on you for doing that.

Bed was comfortable and clean. Shower was good. It had almost everything we needed.

Didn’t know it was a social housing motel . People standing around in pyjamas smoking. Very busy highway and the motel shook every time a truck passed. No milk supplied

Cleaning could take a lift. Check TV remotes.

Great shower.

On the main road which was very noisy. Kitchen facilities were very disappointing. Cutlery, plates missing. No dishwashing liquid or towels. A very basic motel in need of a makeover.

Helpful staff member.

Stayed in October 2022

We had the room closest to the front - maybe 10 metres from the main road - every truck that went by caused the room to shake - earthquake level. Also having the heaters on caused a short-circuit and no lights - very nice guy in the front office sorted it out eventually

Good shower - pressure and no temperature fluctuations like in our last motel

Whenever I phoned, as i left my phone charger behind. The phone was either unanswered or when answered there was no indication that I had reached Broadway Motel

Comfortable room/bed/good shower

The main house that is on the property accommodates interesting people. There was a couple singing horrendous karaoke about 6 metres from my unit between the hours of 7.30pm - 10.30pm and cleaning staff who also resided in the house were verbally and physically violent towards young relatives on the premise within 6 metres of my unit. Also there was no extraction fan above the stove top so smoke alarm went off during the first 2 minutes of cooking steak.

Receptionist was accommodating and lovely to speak to also the room was exceptional clean.

The bed was a bit too soft for my liking.

The room was tidy and clean.
