Me and my family arrived at Ashbrook Motel Taupo after 5pm. The reception we received from Maggie was very very warm. Such a pleasant lady she was. We were even upgraded to a 2 bedroomed room. This made our stay even more comfortable. Thank you kindly Ashbrook Motel Taupo. I would definitely book this place again.
