The room was clean and large, great for my family, was spacious, kitchen was fully stocked with cutlery, pots, pans, large tub with clean white towels with body wash and hand soap, smart tv, heatpump and aircon all in working Order with a little outside table and chairs private

Wifi was weak but free so still good, the aircon didn’t reach the top so up stairs was very warm so suitable for those that like sleeping in the warmth during summer aka me, my husband didn’t enjoy it but found a fan but never used as it was dusty so they need cleaning.

Enjoyed my stay here for a few nights while in Hastings for the Wonder Christmas Market. The room met my expectations and made for a comfortable stay. I picked this room with the added bonus of having a kitchenette and spa bath tub - made for a relaxing stay! The room was larger than I expected, and nice having a comfy couch to relax on too. Plenty of space and large parking lot which was an added bonus with driving a larger vehicle. The lodge is close to the outskirts of Hastings which made for easy access with by passing around the city and coming in near the showgrounds, was able to avoid the busy traffic around 5pm on the day I arrived. I was happy to walk 15-20 mins towards some shops and grocery store after a big drive into Hastings, but it wouldn't have been difficult to drive either. I would definitely stay here again the next time I attend a Wonder Market.

I can't really think of any negative things from my stay, I enjoyed my stay. Thank you!

Air conditioning! We got into Hastings in 29deg, and needed a break to cool down. Found the room very hot for a start as the power breaker was tripped, but once we reset that we were in AC bliss! The room was very spacious, the bed comfortable & bathroom well appointed. For people staying a few nights this would be a great place - they have lots of room, bbq/picnic area & an outdoor pool.

Nothing serious There was an extra bin outside for the units, which was crawling with ants. Ant Sand would sort that out. We were watching Netflix that night & quite suddenly it stopped - we wondered if the motels wifi had been switched off.

Valdez Motor Lodge offers a delightful stay with its clean and comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and convenient amenities. The location is perfect for exploring the area, and the overall experience is sure to leave you feeling relaxed and satisfied.

One fantastic aspect of staying at Valdez Motor Lodge is their understanding of the unique needs of truck drivers. They offer immediate permission to use their accommodations, providing a convenient and welcoming space for a restful night's sleep after a long day on the road.

The hosts were very nice. The rooms were functional. The kids loved the swimming pool. Towels were changed each day and our sheets were changed after the 3rd night.

The stairs were a bit creeky, and our carpet was threadbare in some places. But when we inspected the property a month prior we were shown a recently refurbished room, so they must be slowly updating their rooms.

Great motel for our 5 day Family holiday in Hastings. Our room had an outdoor area and 2 levels (Queen bed and single upstairs and 2 singles downstairs), simple kitchette and adequate bathroom with spa bath. Location was good with quick access to local shops and splash planet and overall good central location to explore Hawkes Bay

Very spacious, beautiful to look at, grounds very tidy. Front is very deceiving, but once you drive through, it is beautiful. Many thanks to the female host. She was so accommodating and friendly.

Very small tv in the corner of a large spacious room. Was not the right size for the room

This was a business trip and I stayed in two different units over a two-week period. Both units were fantastic and equipped with everything needed. They were serviced daily which meant coming back to a clean unit with fresh towels. The parking was off the road and meant the work van was safe. The motel was on the main road which meant it was easy to find and the staff were very helpful.

I appreciated that the facilities did not permit visitors to bring pets, which was a significant advantage for us as we required a clean space for prayer. Additionally, the room service was prompt, and we had ample space for our family.

If dishcloth, sink cloth and dishwashing liquid could be provided.

The location was great for us. Our room was serviced each day. The service was very good and the staff were pleasant.

The room was very tired and needs refreshing. We noticed that skirting boards and some harder to reach areas hadn't been cleaned.
