Kings Gate Motel

My room was very dated with worn carpet and only Luke warm hot water. Whilst clean I thought the price was expensive. Laundry was only partially functioning

We booked a 2 room cabin, the place was quiet that was nice but the place wasn't clean a dirty oven try left in the oven! Plates with crumbs on them! The bathroom fan didn't work so the cabin was super super damp, no soaps or shampoo dispensers were all empty! The bathroom and toilet door didn't close properly or quietly. The main bedroom must have a leak somewhere it rained on the last day and the carpet in the morning was super wet along the window. Couches were uncomfortable feels like it pushes you head forward and the TV had no Internet connection to watch Netflix like advertised. The place is very run down and needs a really really good clean! The accommodation was close to town and quiet. I wouldn't recommend this place spend an extra $100 and stay somewhere else

Walls, ceilings had many dirt marks and cobwebs. Door to water closet has filthy hand marks which I removed in 5 seconds. Curtains were filthy and/or ripped. Blind in kitchen didn’t work at all. They did not suit the layout of the windows and entryway. No privacy without blocking light. Zero greeting including check in for a 5 night stay!!!! A posted note on the office door and an unlocked door to a room was all we got. I had requested a room on the upper level many months before we arrived. Didn’t get it or any message indicating this was not possible. Overall impression was not friendly. Motel looked quite dilapitated. I’m not sure how the ratings changed so rapidly since I booked. I would never have booked this place if the reviews weren’t favourable.

Staff were great. Leaving a bag with them for a few days was a blessing while walking the Heaphy Track

Yes the staff were great and room was nice and clean. Just needs a few things sorting out. The free standing lamp wasnt working in the lounge. The kitchen sink tap was loose. Curtains in the bedroom were worn with holes and need replacing. Otherwise all good

The room was clean, and it was nice having our own little "house". The shower was in the spa bathtub, so there was no curtain. We didn't have a specific parking spot, but there was enough around so that wasn't an issue. The staff was great!

The room was tired and dirty. Very underequipped for a 2 bedroom apartment. Fridge was leaking. Some lights did not work. The filters in the air conditioner unit were filthy. The stove cooktop was dirty. There was no milk in the room or offered at check-in. The swimming pool was very dirty.

Lovely managers, very quiet motel. Clean and lots of room for family of 4 in a one bedroom.

Property is poorly maintained with pool closed and room lights not working etc
