The support that Peter gave us from confirming our booking allowing us to go in early.We got lost due to not able to follow directions on Google map as there were too many highways and byways confusing. So we rang Peter and he guided us from where we were lost which coincidentally only took 5 minutes to get there considering we had been going wrong directions for last hour.When we arrived we were in awe. 1 bedroom cottage filled with all comforts of home but more.an amazing back yard scenery from patio. Open doubledoors lovely simple garden. The home was heated up to warm temperatures. Breakfast wow. We are regular travelers and yes we stay at motels and we also have regular places we stay at but we have never experienced what we had for one night at Annie's B&B. Thank you so much Peter for your amazing hospitality it's sad we didn't get to meet your wife Annie Please accept our gratitude for your amazing place we will definitely return when opportunity arises again.Thank you and God Bless you both a.nd your Team

Extremely clean. Very comfortable. Very good location. Close to our relative and to town. Our choice of motel now when visiting Wanganui.

The entrance can be tricky if the traffic is busy as it is just after the corner. Could be easy to miss the entrance if you did not know where it was. Otherwise no problems at all. Why we keep coming back.

Aircon

Aircon automatically turned on to heat at about 6am. I had to get up, light on, and turn it back to cooling. Loud guests returning at 2 in the morning shouting across the carpark. Not a fault of the motel as such but an indication that the windows are single glazed and don't muffle any sound.

Friendly staff. Bed was large and really comfortable. Our standard room had a sofa, microwave and fridge. Nice cutlery and crockery. Good shower. Sky TV and really fast, unlimited WiFi. Unit was clean and tidy though a little dated, but no worries Laundry and a line to hang clothes on to dry Perfect for our 2 nights

My only issue was it was a little nearer the road and bridge than I realised, the occasional road noise of big trucks and "boy racers" could be heard.

A fantastic last minute stop over. Excellent value offering which made me book and stay instead of travelling further. A very clean and tidy operation overall. I appreciate the check in process was very quick and easy making it a top spot for those late bookings.

The Astral exceeded expectations. It was great to have two beds and the kitchen facilities The central location was great.

I wish I had asked for an extra blanket as I got cold in the night (after the office was closed). Luckily we had a blanket in our car.

It was clean and not noisy. Not in the middle of town but quite close. Bed was comfortable.

Hot tap over the kitchen sink did not work. Rubbish bin in kitchen should have had a lid instead of being open. A dish drainer in the kitchen would be a good idea. No light switch near the bed.

The unit was huge, it had a bedroom with a double bed & 2 single beds. In the main room you have a sofa, dining table and another double bed. It was clean and a good 15-20 min walk into town. Although on a busy road it was quiet.

The unit itself was quite dated and there was some noise from the other units. Couldn't turn off the lights from the bed.

Excellent location, easy to find by sat nav

As a first time visitor to Whanganui I would have liked to find a map of the city in the intro folder, perhaps a list of recommended eating establishments and sights for visitors,
