However, I booked the room because there was a photo over “select this room” with a cooker in it. However, when we arrived there wasn’t one; only a microwave, fridge, kettle and toaster. We phoned reception from the supermarket to ask about that as it’s not easy being a vegetarian in Taihape. The receptionist said we had booked one of two rooms with no cooker in it. When my husband told her about the photo, she said the Expedia photo was out of date. She maintained we hadn’t booked a room with a cooker in it. It looks like they may have updated the photo on the site, but too late for us. ##### Rebecca Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter Dec 23, 2024 Would like shower gel in the shower. ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Goretti Nov 10, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely, friendly hostess greeted us upon arrival, gave us the key and showed us our room. The location is very handy to all amenities, 2 minutes drive to the local shopping centre, nice restaurants, New World for snacks and drinks, right on State highway 1 for easy access. Cleanliness is tops, bed very comfortable, compliments to the hosts and we shall return soon. ##### Goretti ### 8/10 Good #### Keith May 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I have stayed here before, its a good location for traveling the island between centers, just out of town. The downside is the volume of heavy trucks on the main road outside late at night. Reasonably priced and same standards as most other motels for the price. There is a good restaurant close by for dinner, good menue and a welcoming roaring fire, in winter. ##### Keith Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Beth Jan 21, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities So close to main road traffic noise is constant through the night …… take ear plugs! Otherwise a very pleasant stay ##### Beth Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Raewyn and Stephen Nov 2, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Was clean ##### Raewyn and Stephen ### 6/10 Okay #### David Feb 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service By the side of the highway so take ear plugs!
