Okay stay here at the Ashwood Manor

The Good:

*Comfortable Bed with good linen
*Incredible Spa Tub in the bathroom -  good water pressure
*Good Location in the CBD
*Sky TV
*Air Conditioning 

The Bad

*Parking is not great 
*They seem to rent rooms out on a long term basis, and some of the guests are very noisy. Lots of loud music, clapped out cars hogging all the best parks. Slamming doors, kids yelling, adults yelling. People hanging outside doors smoking. Made me feel really uncomfortable. Wish I had read previous reviews on this place which also mention this. I would have probably reconsidered.

*The road noise was alarming. Room arnt double glazed. The rubbish truck at 5.45am outside my room was alarming. 

I am not sure I would stay here again. I just didnt feel comfortable outside my room. But the rooms are decent, and the location is nice. Maybe this establishment needs to ensure the long term guests they do have are not causing issues so that nightly guests dont want to stay. 

Okay, but do your research

Stayed here last night and found the room to be ok but getting a bit dated 
Check in was very pleasant and were given freshly ground coffee which was nice touch
They seem to rent out some rooms on a long term basis and there were some not so desirable people hanging around and a bit of noise at night 

Ok visit

Night from hell, thumping music all night Gangsters roaming around the buildings.
Cockroaches all over the kitchen, rooms dirty.
I would have left and slept  in the car but wasn’t keen on carrying my belongings to the car through the gangsters with tattoos all over there heads Smoking drugs outside my filthy room.
Don’t stay at the Ashwood.

Gangster smoking drugs

Central city location is one of the strongest points of this motel. Perfectly located, walking distance to the hospital, restaurants, cafes, and gardens. Our room had fresh bed sheets, comfortable beds, strong water flow and a hot shower. The young man who assisted at the desk on check-in on Sunday, and check-out on Monday, was professional and is an asset to the motel, who also came promptly to assist with television problems. He was helpful in the phone when we booked.

A real negative was the filthy carpet, stain marks on the chest of drawers, fridge and sofa. The carpet in particular needed a deep commercial clean. Some of our fellow guests were very loud late in the evening. Much slamming of doors. 

In general I would recommend this place only if you ask for a room inspection first. But with real attention to cleanliness, I would have rated this property higher.

Mixed blessing

The worst stay ever in a hotel- we were subjected to loud music from the room next door from approx 2.30 in the morning and found he was  mob/gang affiliated on long term stay and who was happy to offer drugs - we had requested he turn it down which lasted 10 mins at a time - finally got someone from the hotel on a mobile as reception is not manned till 9 am and who had to come twice . Music continued loudly till just after 8am in the morning .Overall we had 1 hour sleep- Visitors staying at the other end of the block heard it as well yet the Owner/ Manager who stays directly below says they didnt??   No Apology from the Management who seems more interested in having gang affiliated long term guests and their well being, than that of any other quests . Is this a hotel or a half way house? As later found there were more long term quests .  POORLY managed !! The hotel supplies were very minimal 2 towels for 2 people staying over night coffee tea etc was minimal - had to ask for a extra blanket as none supplied and bed had the most thinnest blanket on and was told we had a heat pump which on return to hotel was not working and we could not turn on . 
so for a night of no sleep no apology  Customer care is ZERO haggled to get a 30% discount (36) dollars which we did not freely agree on as they thought 20% was sufficent . but yet have not received ..No Care NO service NO Apology. I would not recommend this place to anyone

Appalling

Was looking forward to a great night with my wife of 30years...chose what I thought was a decent enough motel for $182 for the night...was I wrong or what. As soon as we arrived Wife received attitude from reception staff member due to our arrival being a little early. Carpark had people hanging in and around cars which I presumed were emergency housing residents. Room was clean. Spa was good...although only given 1 towel each. Aircon was great along with fan and large TV with 50 Sky channels. Mini bar Fridge is way too small for 2 or more people. Woken up at 6am Sunday morning by loud music coming from 2 rooms away from ours. Neighbouring room asked idiot to shut it down which he obliged for about 10minscthen started up again...we got up and left. Sorry we wont be back....

Disappointing

Motel is just outside the centre of Hamilton, but everything is in walking distance.
The room was basic, but spacious and clean.
Parking places are a bit small.
The reception was ok, friendly people. Nice place for a visit to Hamilton.
Good priced.

good location

Very friendly staff who were very obliging. 
The place is old and dated and not the cleanest - cobwebs on walls and dust on surfaces. Lots of obviously emergency housed families. Lots of kids running around but they were all surprisingly quiet at night and respectful. 
Very stuffy rooms with no air conditioning. 
Would not recommend for anyone other than those on a very tight budget. 
Here is a pic of my NZ$19 room service breakfast, complete with mug of tomato juice - sums the place up nicely .....

You get what you pay for ....

Customer service was ok, but not the cleanest place to stay. Seems to have lots of people staying in the same room. Some look long term guest and not the friendliness. 
WiFi good and close to city with restaurants. 
Get what you pay for.
