Had what u needed in room

Property wasn't what we expected from web, was more of a backpackers , shared bathroom-toilets ,kitchen. But room although no aircon was adequate.

This place used to be really good but now it's gone downhill for sure! Wouldn't take much to fix up, - Staff need to be more present, had a family next to me with their kids up and down the hallway knocking on doors till 2am. - Paid for delux room x2 nights never got any new linen or room clean, and the bathroom still had hair in it. - Kitchen appliances are terrible none of the ovens work and the one that semi works is disgustingly dirty you'll smoke out the whole 2nd floor if you turn it on. - The ONLY thing this place has going for it is location. Really sucks because I've been here before and it was really good but I don't know if it had new owners oe what but it's shocking now! And I won't be back there again

The pull out couch was not comfortable and it was not sorted out with bedding after I reminded them that it needed to be done. The community kitchen needs a revamp.

4 person room we stayed in wasn't vacuumed, mattress old. Very run down room, bathroom stand broken, toilet leaking as well as kitchenette sink leaked into the cupboard and onto carpet. After showing the manager he only said it can be fixed next day..no apology or offer to dry or clean it. Cooking food smells also waft into your room from the main shared kitchen..a rangehood would probably help. Very sad as it's more affordable option for families but it could be so much better..

Good value, good location

Bathroom was not clean properly when we arrive. Everything is good but bathroom 🚽 have to be tidy.

Booked a King bed. Got two doubles pushed together for a romantic night away... Bathroom had paint flex anaround edge of floor from ceiling , been there for months, wiped floor with bath mat and mawas black from dirt off floor

Aside from the noisy cars, the property is as described. It was basic and great for a stop over to rest our head on way to Wellington from Auckland

Average

I've already sent you this info. It stunk of Curry and there was no heating in our room. Call me if you want 0274990298

I did not like the fact the hot water temperature had been set. I was unable to make my shower hotter.

It was very convenient for an overnight stay. Friendly check in and clean room with its own bathroom. So necessary for older guests. TV and heating in room was good too

Close to town just a stroll to the lake

Great place to stay

Clean and tidy motel. Car park was full, so had to park out on roadside

Clean and tidy. Was greeted at reception by friendly staff on arrival, however no staff on reception the next morning and it was afer 8.30am. Heat pump in room was not very effective and was disappointed to find hotwater ran out and had a cold shower. Paid accomodation should not run out of hot water.

Property needs some serious repairs. Its a great spot for a cheap couple of nights. But the room we stayed in required serious actual building code repairs to the bathroom ceiling.

Althought the staff were friendly and helpful,the lodge kitchen had sub-standard cooking equipment eg frypans and no coffee plunger, grater etc.The water in the tap was not hot enough to actually wash dishes and kill bacteria. The shower water temperature also was warm only and could not be increased to have a hot shower, to the point that I chose not to shower because of the cold. Generally things are run down, eg no towel hook in shower, non-fitting shower curtain, broken things not fixed. I would not stay at this place again

Thanks

The parking wasnt really great. Really small

Exvellent for the price

Really great value for money. Clean spacious private room with private bathroom and option to use the communal kitchen. Easy parking and not far from the town centre for walking.

Good value

Location is good. What was poor is the fact we didn’t get much hot water in our shower. Maintenance guy said it was standard across the room. Water temp was quite cold plus it was 1degree outside so a hot shower would have been great. Bunk bed needs work done on it, metal rails make a lot of noise with kids twisting and turning in bed. Otherwise not a bad place to stay for the money

great service

After checking in I checked the bedding and found a filthy, staind mattress cover, had to get them to change and put new one on bed, lounge suite had stains and shower door was cloudy, fittings falling off the walls and light fittings missing, with water stains on back of curtains.

Disappointed with my stay. Large stains on carpet, tired furniture, hard bed & a bathroom with a massive hole in the ceiling covered by a sheet of corflute (like a real estate sign). Difficulty with checking in also.

Needs a lot of Maintenace Our room had 4 problems That needed repair

This is a nice hotel it’s away from the noise of the shopping and bar area. Across from the lake so nice views out the window and a small balcony

Nice large room - great rate

Firstly, complete false advertising. It does Not have a Restaurant & does Not put on breakfasts. A good thing I phoned to check a few days before. It has a communal kitchen & dining area with cooking gear & shared fridges & crockery etc. It did not have air conditioning in the room. We stayed in a room with shared bathrooms down the passage way. The room was reasonably clean the beds comfortable & the linen being from a hire laundry was normal hotel quality. The reception was quick but charged my credit card without asking so incurred a 3.5% additional fee! But said they would give us a bottle of wine but we had to chase them to get it. The staff say very few words, so not very welcoming. The shared bathroom/toilets had ingrained dirt in the floor, the hand dryer didn’t work, the men’s urinal over flowed sometimes when flushed leaving things messy & smelly. Hallway carpets were threadbare in places & the dish washer in the communal kitchen should be thrown out. Hot water in the showers ran out if you were late getting up, but if you got up early the communal kitchen was locked till 7.30am so you couldn’t get at your food stored there. The rooms were called ECO but maybe they could start with Eco shower heads. Good car parking but the 1st car park area needs some attention. Because there was a major event that weekend their room rate was very high, completely unjustifiable given the state of & type of place.
