Kerikeri Court Motel

Receptionist was polite.

No fuss, clean and busy accommodation right beside McDonald’s

Very good traditional motel, centrally located with great staff. Highly recommended.

This Motel is a disaster waiting to happen. The receptionist had poor English but we accommodated that. What we worried about was the removal of the battery smoke alarm. Our business partners in another room also had their battery smoke alarm moved. As far as we could see there was no permanently wired smoke alarm. Added to this was the power box cable hanging on the curtain. It was hot!

Good stay but needed some maintenance. Outdoor table outside our room was badly buckled (and isn't the only one) so hard to eat on if sitting on the deck. Compendium in rooms are very out of date. It states there were Sky Movies but there was not. It also states daily room service but I had to ask for it after the fourth night as our bin was full, we were running out of toilet paper and needed clean towels. Had to go down twice over a 7 night stay to ask for more toilet paper. Was told we were supposed to let them know if we required room service the night before if it was needed. Bad service. Pool was nice but the stones around it are sharp to walk on in barefeet.

This was a very quaint and welcoming property. The location was great, with easy walkable distance to shopping and grocery stores. The shower was a bit small and on the short side. The staff was friendly and helpful. All the appliances worked and there was parking for our car right infront of our room. We would definitely return if we come back to this area of NZ.
