Though this is an older property it appears to have been refurbished to a high standard, but still keeping with the age of the property. The studio unit was one of the largest I have seen, with a 3 seater couch and lazy boy recliner. Large bathroom and double glazed windows on the road side - the property is close... More

Massive thank you to Roselle & Peter at Shadzz for making us and all our guests feel very welcome!! Nothing was ever a problem and they were more than happy to make last minute adjustments when required for our wedding party. We really appreciated your help and everyone was very pleased with their rooms which was great. All the rooms... More

This is one of the best motels we have stayed in. The hosts are excellent, everything you need is available in the unit, room to put your toilet bag in the bathroom, comfortable bed, plenty of space to store your suitcase and still have room to move, everything was spotlessly clean and the cost is very reasonable. Couldn't find any... More

I booked this motel as the reviews were very good, but unfortunately I was very disappointed with the motel and not somewhere I would stay on a return visit to Palmerston North. The decor is rather dated and the motel interior could be improved considerably with a few new pieces of furniture. The kitchen is well equiped and a few... More

We appreciate you taking the time to write a review and we are aware that you are the second person that stayed in our two bedroom unit, with your friend who wrote the review titled 'Very average'. We are very disappointed that you did not air all of these concerns with us while staying. As you have stated the front... More

Phoned to make a booking and asked about the level of cleanliness and quietness at the motel as it is on a main road and we were assured it was above standard. It sounded like the motel was modern and clean. Upon arrival we were disappointed with older style furniture and painted walls over wallpaper. It is also on a... More

Thank you for taking the time to write your review and we are very sorry that your stay with us at Shadzz Motel was less than you expected it to be. When we received your call, we did not promise complete quietness, but did say the second bedroom was double glazed and the unit was clean. We did not discuss... More

We stayed twice recently within the space of a 10 days due to a relative passing away in Palmerston North. Peter and Rozelle were 24 carat hosts, ensuring we had everything we could need including extra fans for the hot weather. As a family of four, we enjoy our space and the two bedroom units are fantastic with a beautiful... More

My family and I recently emigrated from Scotland and spent 3 weeks at the Shadzz whilst waiting to get access to our rental property. We stayed from the 18th Dec through to the 11th Jan and I will be totally frank and say it was an excellent introduction to Palmerston North. Rozelle and Peter (and their 2 lovely children) were...

My daughter and I stayed here over a weekend while she was playing in a sports tournament. Our initial welcome was warm and helpful with the offer to take our luggage upstairs. The amenities were pointed out, ensuring we were well settled. Our one bed unit was spacious and beautifully decorated and furnished. The recliner chairs were a hit! The... More

I would like to thank Peter and Roselle for a wonderful stay over a period of a few weeks. We stayed at Shadzz several times over a period of a few weeks while we were caring for a sick relative. The compassion shown and little extra attentions given were much appreciated. Our 1 year old son was looked after well... More
