Dave, New Zealand

Everything was amazing from the Manager, location to the Motel Room. The place was so clean, tidy, comfortable and welcoming! The manager was so awesome! It was my partners birthday on the Saturday we arrived, (id suprised him with the weekend away in Franz) in the room was the cutest wee suprise - a selection of cheese, crackers, dips and a bottle of wine with the cutest note from the motel wishing my partner a happy birthday. It was very lovely and really unexpected. Had the best dinner down the road at Snake Bite which was recommended by the manager and finished it off with a Spa back in our Motel room! 100% percent loved this place and all the happy vibes given xxx

“Give the accomodation and location a miss if bad weather is forcast”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Studio with Spa Bath
- • Stayed 1 night
The location probably dictated the price rather than the accommodation. Balcony overlooked, cobwebs on beams, poor insulation on roof (we were awake all night with the rain pounding down). The Price was far too high for what was only a motel room. Again booking.com, suggesting that rooms are booking up quickly was misleading as numerous vacancies were evident in the motel and elsewhere in Frans Josef.
