Our family of five booked two rooms for three nights over the school holidays. Communication from Drovers was excellent and immediate. We appreciated that although we arrived very late, this was taken care of. Everything was clean, modern and comfortable. It had everything we needed/ wanted and nothing we didn't. With an inner courtyard, parking was easy, secure and plentiful. Considering the city location on a main thoroughfare, we found it quiet. Conveniently, there is an excellent cafe (the Cooperage) for breakfast every morning pretty much across the road, New World only a few hundred metres away, two petrol stations (Z on the opposite corner open till 10pm or pay at the pump gas all night, or the manned 24- hour Caltex a little bit further). There are two wheelchair accessible rooms. The bathrooms are mirrors of each other which I found convenient as one orientation suits my disabled person better than the other. The Forest and Bird toiletries are a nice touch, and the bathroom worked well for us. One room had just a king sized bed, and the other a queen and a single. The beds were really comfy. The hoist (to lift the disabled person) did not quite fit under the bed although it was close, so I did have to put the 'elephant feet' (that I have for the purpose) underneath to lift the bed. I did have to push the hoist from the hard floor surface in the kitchenette area up onto the carpeted area around and under the bed, but it wasn't too difficult. Altogether, we were extremely surprised at the bargain basement price. I wonder that it was too cheap and might put some people off.... so I can confirm its a good standard and well worth more than the price. All the normal amenities- decent sized Smart TV, heat pump, silent fridge (yay) etc. I did notice that there wasn't a heater in the bathroom which would be a severe deprivation for my disabled person in the winter but was no problem in January.

We stayed in a studio apartment, which was lovely and clean. The carpet was new and clean, as was the bathroom. It was great having a smart TV with Netflix. It is short drive to the town centre, and a short walk to the supermarket.

The staff was super nice and friendly. The room was clean with everything we needed. Will be our first choice when we go to Palmerston North next time.
