    Close to everything in the city; you park your car in front of your room; you can have your breakfast at the room, with groceries bought from a store that is 100 metres away. Room is well equipped.

    Great location, great views from the room. The room had everything we needed. We stayed in many motels/hotels during our 3 weeks in New Zealand and I would say that the room we had at the Terrace had the most comfortable bed. Highly recommend this...
