Wednesday, 18 August 2010 09:27
| FOXTON: Local Moteliers Ray and Mary Anderson are delighted to be named in the final 16 of New Zealand’s Next Top Motel competition. Having managed Foxton Court Motel for just 8 months the couple is delighted to see their improvements to the premises are starting to be recognized.
Since taking over in the New Year the couple has installed new jugs and refrigerators in every unit, excepting the rarely used units 15 and 16, and have added new toasted sandwich presses to 10 of the 16 rooms.
Other changes include painting the Motel swimming pool, adding wireless broadband access and refitting the heavily used trampoline in the children’s play area.
“We’ve put a lot of work into the place and it’s exciting to be pitting our experience against New Zealand’s other top Moteliers in the upcoming show,” said a delighted Ray.
The TV3 show will test Ray and Mary’s Moteling skills in a variety of situations from changing beds, through to performing home maintenance jobs to dealing with unruly patrons in the late hours of the evening.
Have you got any advice for young Moteliers Ray?
“Treat everyone how you would like to be treated and never enter a room before knocking.” |
