After moving to Wellington and passing through Palmerston North, I planned to stop for a rest. This motel was clean and quiet. I also caught up with the weekend market the next day and experienced the local customs. It was good. There was a Chinese restaurant in front of the hotel. I liked it. Friends who like Chinese food can try it. Walking along the road in front of the hotel to the Central District, I met an international student from Shanghai. We had a friendly chat and recommended a Korean restaurant in the Central District to me. Unfortunately, reservations were required, so I checked in to a Japanese restaurant not far away, but failed.

The room is very good, clean and sanitary. There are Chinese service staff. The two Chinese restaurants at the door are also good and cheap. There is a supermarket opposite. It is convenient for shopping and Western food.

Don’t let the price of this place and the nice photos they put up temp you into staying at this dump. The rooms are horrid they are smaller than a sardine can. This beds are terrible and the rooms are filthy. This place needs to be condemned. It’s truly amazing that the district council has not shut it down yet.

Have been staying here for over 20 years. Unfortunately the place has been on the decline the past 2 years. The manager was rude and unreasonable. I’d sooner sleep in my car before staying here again.

I booked a room several months ago so we would have accommodation to see our daughter graduate from Massey University. However the motor lodge decided to cancel our booking the Wednesday prior to our arrival so they could up sell our room, leaving our family without accommodation. After phoning the motor lodge about the cancellation, I was told it was due to who we booked through even though the email states clearly it was the motor lodge and the room was already on sold. It was clear on the paperwork who cancelled the room. So disappointed that a business would do this to customers putting profit first especially on such an important occasion.
Response from Property: Hi thank you for your review but unfornunately we have no control over booking agents bookings

Palmerston North is blessed with a load of Motels and Hotels, ranging from the Absolute Dire, to Really, Really good. Aspree Motor Inn is the pick of the bunch. Fastidiously Clean and functional rooms, epic Customer Service and an awesome location. Even whilst being on the Main Drag, the rooms are quiet and afford a decent night's rest. We have our Drivers staying here at least once a week for a while now, and they do not like staying anywhere but the Aspree. Fantastic parking around the back allows easy access for Trucks and Trailers. It's location in proximity to Supermarkets and Restaurants really cannot be beat. The Nightly Rates are extremely good value for money. We really appreciate our Drivers being able to stay in such Clean and Comfortable rooms while they are away from their families. Keep up the amazing work Aspree Team!

I do not recommend this motel at all! The motel manager Leeanne Offwood and another worker Acacia Ruru party and sleep with the clients staying at the motel. Leeanne even showered in one of our rooms while we were at work and left her body wash in my shower. Very disgusting and unprofessional!

Stayed in November. Will never again! Room wreaked of cigarette. We left the doors and windows opened for 5 hours and still stunk, was sickening. Pillow stunk like *********. We told the receptionist who said she knew it stunk yet still gave us the room and some air freshener. She confirmed someone had lived there for weeks in that room smoking and the owners still sold us that room. We were offered another room however it was too small to accommodate our visitors for the afternoon. We asked to speak to the owners, we rung 4 times after leaving to speak to them however they refused to contact us back, to hear our concerns, care about our experience or give us a refund. The constant stink cigarette smell was so strong and sickening, could smell it the entire time we were there and all night sleeping. This is disgusting service. Never stay here.
