Basic, clean, friendly and fantastic value in a great position near the city centre (10 mins walk to Beehive). It’s awesome to see ‘Old School’ pub accommodation still exists where you can ‘choose’ to have a shared toilet/shower space, to remember life before the en suite! Oh and it’s a great pub downstairs with real good food. The mussels were superb. And to top it all - free parking. Thank you - I will be back.

Had lunch here after a bridal fitting with daughter across the road. Really liked the atmosphere, large bar area. Great menu. Espresso martinis were good! We ordered squid, fries, chicken burger, tacos. All our food was excellent, good tasty pub food and affordable. The winner was the garlic loaf, best I have ever had anywhere in NZ! The bread was delish and the whipped garlic butter was perfect. Would definitely go back!

Highly recommend. We had a dinner of 8 people. Food came out quickly and the flavour was amazing on everything. Service was perfect too. Will be back definitely.

We arrived early for check in but they held our bags for us, which was nice. The facility is worn out and the out of reach places had not been cleaned in a long time. The stairs leading to the room were wet and dirty. The room itself looked newly renovated. It had sky TV box that was not connected to the TV and a fridge that didn't work. (we noticed the next day when our leftovers had rotted in the heat). The bathroom was small but useable but once again suffered from a lack of thorough cleaning. There was mold all over the ceiling and spider webs up high. The bed was super comfortable and we did get fresh towels every day. It was extremely hot when we visited and the one fan provided was not really up to the task. The best thing about this place is the location. It is a short 10 minutes walk into town.

We loved the place, our room was huge. With plenty of character, and straight down stairs for a very nice meal.. highly recommend a stay.

Booked a room as we had an early sailing on the ferry. Check in was easy, took our bags to the room and went to the bar/restaurant to get dinner. Great food and friendly staff. When wr went to the room and checked a bit closer we found the bathroom was great till you looked up. The ceiling was a mess of old cracked paint and black mold, like horror movie level cracked paint and mold. We immediately went to the manager and informed him and without missing a beat he offered a full refund. Was very pleasant and helpful, but also not surprised in the slightest.

We have been eating and drinking at this place for 30plus years.We almost always watch rugby games here. Not any more. They showed the game but no sound, despite booking a table specifically to watch the rugby. Told me to move to another area where the sound was on, except you couldnt hear it. The owner/manager couldnt have cared less and was rude.The staff were embarrassed, not their problem.Wont be going here again to watch any sport.

Went there for dinner and ordered the mussels which was served in pot. The delicious Asian flavour of the mussels just warmed my heart and stomach! I finished up the sauce as if it was soup, well maybe it is the soup to my soul...The mussels is a MUST order!
