Motel 6 exceeded my expectations. The room was very comfortable also with full SKY available which was a bonus. It was also very very clean. I would stay at Motel 6 again and no doubt will stay there on my next visit to Whangarei.

We have stayed previously so knew what to expect. We liked the Downstairs King Studio room as it has proximity to eateries and the comfortable facilities at this motel. We stayed 2 nights and were pleased the Sky TV remote replacement batteries because it wasn't working on the first night. We sampled the spa pool this time and appreciated the soak after working all day Love the Heat Pump, the generous bathroom and kitchen
