The location of the hotel is good, not far from the pier. There are not many guests and parking is very convenient. There are places to eat not too far away. I checked in early in the morning and was given a room directly. The price-performance ratio is good.

There is nothing to comment on the service infrastructure, it is standard for New Zealand Motel. Key complaints: The room was full of little crickets🦗 and I couldn’t finish it. The hotel was so tight that I couldn’t stay anywhere else. It made me sick for two nights! ! ! I have stayed in many hotels in Paihia, edgewater, heritage, including the swiss lodge next door, and I have never encountered this situation.
