Apple Motor Inn

Located on the outskirts of Hastings. Walking distance to multiple dinner options. Clean and well equipped.

We stayed one night in Hastings to break up an otherwise longer journey. The motel was OK, probably one of the cheapest but nothing to write home about. No air conditioning but they did provide a fan.

The accommodation was spacious and comfortable but lacked adequate cooking facilities. I felt it was unhygienic not to have a separate basin for washing dishes. We were concerned that the fire doors were in need of repair and there were no smoke detectors or evacuation instructions. The swimming pool needed cleaning although good to have one.

It was available at short notice. It was clean and comfortable. Comfortable bed, all the amenities that we required. The walls were a bit thin as we could hear the man next door snoring but all right for two nights.

The bed was at right angle to the lights and hot points, better to have the bed head between the lights but room may be a factor. the shower run out of puff when needing cut back temperature. Apart from that really good and clean at a reasonable price. Close to shops Happy to stay again.

Our room was clean and beds are comfy but the whole place is extremely run down. I booked it for the pool and the pool was out of order and green - during school holidays! Was disappointed.

It was cheap but it obviously caters to homeless people and large groups of seasonal workers who were noisy and inconsiderate . I would never stay there again. I was kept awake by a party next door until 2am even after asking them to please be quiet. The worst motel ever.

Although the unit we stayed in (#13) was very dated, and needs a complete renovation, the unit was clean and tidy. There are catches on the windows so they can be locked open, but unfortunately anyone can put an arm in to unlock the catch, and climb in. The bathroom and kitchen windows are up high and have security stays. The area seemed safe and was very quiet at night - the bed was extremely comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed for breakfast. Carparking was ideal, just outside our door. We noted the kitchen vinyl flooring has been patched, and we felt one of the bathroom walls need replacing. We attended a concert and this was fine for what we needed (somewhere to stay the night after the concert). The TV had good reception, and a couch in the room was an added bonus, as was the dining table and 2 chairs. Didn't have time to use the swimming pool or the laundry. Ideal location close to Hastings CBD.

A lot of seasonal workers around but felt safe. My room was basic but clean and tidy.
