After having a positive experience previously we decided to return and spend the weekend here. I chose this motel for the open grass area outside our patio which allowed my toddlers to play on the grass and head down to the childrens play area. On two occasions my children were rushed at by a dog in the childrens play area... More

We stayed overnight with our two dogs and were thrileed to find such a helpful and warm welcome. Ideal studio with separate sitting room and bedroo opening onto enclsoed area - even doggy poo bags supplied. We are not surprised this motel had no vacancies - unlike others nearby. W e will definitely be back! More

My wife and my daughter and myself had the pleasure of staying here for three nights mid December 2011 Our first impressions were how clean and tidy the premises were and the two bedroom unit we shared was tastefully furnished and very comfortable. On arrival I was surprised by the friendly welcome we received at reception and the help that... More

Our volleyball team thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the motel for our tournament week. It was very handy to our tournament venue and had all the necessities we needed. Ross and Megan were very approachable and went out of their way to ensure we enjoyed our stay. We would thoroughly recommend this motel to travellers in the area. Thanks so... More

Arrived from Australia late in the evening and were greated by Ross and Megan at the motel. We were shown our room where the lights and heater were on which made it rather cozy when arriving late. The room was clean and the shower was fantastic. I would definitely stay again as the friendliness and hospitality we received was great.... More

We stayed here August 2011. We booked the downstairs access unit but were given an upstairs ordinary one bedroom unit which wasn't very suitable but since everything was booked out we had to take it. The units were clean with full cooking facilities. A bit cold, but we were given an extra heater and extra blankets when we asked. Unfortunately... More

With all the accommodation avaliabkle in Wellington we came back to the AAA Mana. Why? Because of the service we recieved on our last visit. When travelling with a swim team it was important to choose a place where teenagers are comfortable, the accommodation suits their needs and the owners/managers can accommodate the group. After staying last year we did... More

We booked for two nights and were excited having seen the website and told that apart from some trains the room was quiet. Not sure where these positive reviews came from? This small motel is situated directly between a busy highway and a busy train track. All night the noise almost shook the walls and kept us up. In the... More

Thank you Karina for your review. As the owners of the motel we are obviously disappointed with your thoughts. You may recall when you phoned to make your booking you demanded a discount based on a two-night stay. You also advised that you had a dog and would not be arriving until midnight. You have failed to mention that we... More
