Katikati Motel

Filthy with cockroaches. Very very unclean. Would not recommend it to anyone. The place needs upgrading with a lot of work needing to be put into it. Lovely people. But needs work.

This place does not comply with "any" health and safety standards i was given two single beds with an oversized floppy king sized mattress to sleep on the atmosphere was glum the grounds had dog poo where kids were meant to play infested with cockroaches no toilet no shower $125 per night my mail was stolen families of 6 crammed into a room the sordid list goes to the manager shut it down clean up your act then do it properly or not at all you know the description on trip advisor especially is a lie. My mail was stolen she helen had video proving the boy from the house behind the office stole my valuable courier package, she accepted his blatant lie i was told jot to look at h or talk to him? She said he was family and under her care??? Zavoid this place at all costs

Over priced, filthy dirty, damages all throughout, dodgey weirdos hanging around, owner is nowhere to be seen staff are rude besides the cleaning lady, holes in walls, for 190 a night would expect alot more, no good for long stays would not recommend staying here to anyone better off sleeping in your car. Anyone who rated this place above 1 to 2 stars is lying or never stayed in a average to decent motel before, be aware not to come here.

This motel was opened in 1972...whilst this could mean a quaint stroll down memory lane in regard to the decor...sadly this motel appears to also last been cleaned in the 70s. In addition to the mould on the ceilings and in the shower, I had the pleasure of crying windows, musty cupboards, dust bunnies of gigantic proportions and filthy floors, skirtings and ceilings. The resident spider was friendly and very well established...however the huge cockroach in the shower was not as welcome. The owners were pleasant and real milk was a nice touch. A big positive was that the bedding and towels were clean and a crisp white. The motel has good bones and with some serious elbow grease and some cheap and cheerful paint could be a niche retro stop for travellers.

Budget 2star accommodation... Clean mostly, just don't look up. Very untidy gardens and lawns. Weeds everywhere. Room service, what's that. Had to ask for linen to be changed more than once. Don't leave valuables in units as the rooms are left open to all and sundry...... Maybe ok for business project that requires staying away but not really recommended. Sadly, you do get used to the main road and fridge noise if you stay here long enough.... Very budget!!
