Pros: We booked for 2 nights at Aubyn Court Spa motel. We are extremely happy with the service that we received. Bed, nice and comfortable, apartment very well maintained, extremely clean and tidy. Hot tub, nice and relaxing after a hectic and busy week, ALL sky channels available, which isn't available at many motels we stayed in before and the plaza is straight across the road, for a spot of shopping. I highly recommend for rest and relaxation. Very enjoyable!

Pros: The room was spacious and clean. The staff member at the main desk was a friendly guy and wasnt impressed that there wasnt basic shower products available.

Pros: Niel was extremely friendly and helpful. He went the extra mile to make sure our stay was perfect. The whole place was immaculately clean, and all of the little details were appreciated. We were the only guests the night we stayed so we received a free upgrade on our room. Clean, friendly, and in a great location. Just right for a night's stay or even a little longer.

Cons: Nothing everything was excellent.

Pros: Loved the bathroom

Pros: The friendliness of the owner was fantastic, the facilities were amaculate and well kept. The location was superb. Breakfast in the morning was provided in a timely manner and the linen is changed daily.

Cons: The weather was a bit hit and miss. There was no taxi ranks at the railway station upon my arrival. The public buses finish at 6:20pm Hopefully when Uber starts up in Palmerston North things will improve.

Pros: Nice breakfast

Cons: There is no guest lounge - it is the owner's lounge and if you try and go in you get ushered out and the door shut. The small bedroom, in conjunction with no lounge, makes for a very uncomfortable stay (unless all you want to do is sleep (the bed was fine)). The spa pool was not available either.

Cons: There was no blankets in the room as a spare, normally its in the closet just in case its needed. I was cold the first night and then asked for one on the second night. I think there should be one on the closet all the time

Pros: we arrived late and the lovely lady rang me the night before to tell me what the room number was and were the key would be,

Cons: The workman that were staying there woke us up at 630am with the radio in the van up full noise,

Pros: Spacious, clean, well equipped. Nicely handy to the Victoria Esplanade Gardens.

Cons: N/a

Pros: location

Pros: Location outdoor area

Cons: Bed was hard

Pros: The staff were very friendly, we had a mixup with our overseas funds, the lady at the desk trusted us to pay a few days in, rather than all up front. The hotel was very airy feeling and the cleanliness was great for the vast part.

Cons: I woke up with about 20 bed bug bites all over both arms & my back & face. As I'd never seen a bed bug or been bitten before I wasn't sure, until I found one under my pillow. The staff were apologetic and offered to change linens. We asked to move rooms.

Pros: Good location. Well looked after grounds.

Pros: Friendly staff. Great location

Pros: Our first time and we had such fantastic time and we are already planning to come again next year. Beautiful apartment and very clean and Peter was very welcoming. Thank you again for making our a stay so comfortable. And bonus having the swimming pool. Blessings

Pros: Nice welcome from man in the office Warm room when I arrived, Thankyou Shower was great, warm and with good water pressure and very nice and clean Bed was comfy and warm

Cons: Bed was not comfortable

Pros: Booked and payed extra for a studio with a spa bath and didn’t actually get that, when looking around the room there was no spa bath!!! On arrival went to go check in to find out that we will have to wait while they go ‘shuffle people around’ to get us a room even thought I booked a months in advance, the wait took soooo long that I went to Kmart, afterwoulds went to get an update of my room situation and the guy at the front desk replied with ‘it’s been ready for ages’ and that the keys in the room!!!! Soooo instead of telling me my rooms ready they just left the front door to my room wide open with the keys in there

Cons: BETTER SERVICE!!!! CEANER ROOMS

Cons: The room wasnt ready until 4.30pm when 2pm is check in. We booked this hotel because it said 1 double bed and 3 singles, it only had 1 double and 1 single, they had to bring 1 single back into the room. There was a huge crack in the bathroom sink that was supposed to be fixed it never was so we couldnt use the sink. We had no hot water until 9.30pm the night we arrived. The tiles in bathroom were missing and cracked. There was no plug for the bath/spa so could not use it. The floor was not vaccumed. The microwave was disgusting food all through it. The windows in bedroom had dirty hand marks all over it from children. The first plate i used had a hair in it. Overall the cleanliness and hygiene of this hotel was horrible i will not reccomend anyone stay there at all!

Pros: Electric blanket was helpful as not enough blankets available for bed

Cons: Linen was not clean. No-one at reception at 10am on check-out. Had confirmed booking for two rooms and only one available on check-in.

Pros: The only good thing was the location.

Cons: Very outdated decor - clearly nothing has been done to it since it was built in the 90’s. Bed was uncomfortable. Freezer compartment in fridge didn’t work. Toilet cistern kept running and had to be fixed every time we flushed the toilet. Noisy - we heard everything in the rooms either side of us. Booked a 2-bedroom unit and ended up in a 1-bedroom unit.

Pros: Good bed and shower

Cons: That I was offered the shitty units ..but decided on an upgrade ...when booking on line was lead to believe I was staying in new part ..but because I'd stayed there before I wouldnt accept those units ..very tired ...

Pros: The breakfast was fresh and lovely.

Cons: Sadly the room we had was dated and in need of a good revamp. The bathroom was old and stained. The shower curtain was dirty and needed replacing or in fact the whole shower needed replacing. We were able to hear the people above us use the lavatory. From beginning to end.

Pros: Comvenience and comfort

Cons: The woman behind the bar seemed to want to be elsewhere.

Pros: I liked the cleaner Tania she’s hot & beautiful

Cons:

Pros: The room was clean and comfortable, staff were friendly and the price was excellent

Cons:

Pros: What breakfast? the owners were friendly when booking in.

Cons: Room met our needs as we were out and about alot. it was a disability room (we had a guide dog puppy with us) however there were a number of things that would not meet the needs if a person was in a wheelchair. There would not have been enough room to wheel around, the space beside the toilet had a shelf in the corner so they would not have been able to transfer onto the toilet and the mirror would be too high if you were seated in a chair and the cups etc were up on a shelf that you would never reach. (I am an occupational therapist so most wouldn't notice these things - I don't need them but if you are advertising as being accessible it needs to be).

Pros: Jenni was lovely. Very friendly. The bed was very comfortable. Good to have the option of trim milk! Very clean.

Cons: The room was very small. No privacy if you need the bathroom. It is not well ventilated so removes the romance! Walls actually moved when doors were shut in neighbouring rooms. Parking spaces were small. Heater didn't work. Very small and budget for the price I paid!

Pros: room was clean

Cons: booked a room with a kitchenette so i could cook, only a microwave in the room no element or cook facilities, to get around the bed you had to watch out that you didnt hit your head on the tv, very squished room
