run down

nothing The whole motel is in need of repair could not find any thing to recommend to any body

Property was clean and staff friendly but very dated and bare. Room was indeed spacious but very minimal furniture or amenities like bedside lamps, water pressure in the shower was very low. The building was also not sound proofed, you could hear the noise from the main road and other guests until late at night.

Very clean but not maintained since built in 1950s I m guessing. No comfortable chairs for watching small tv. Toilet constantly running.

heated spa pools were good and relaxing road traffic noise may disturb someone

Property is right on main drag with logging and other large trucks exiting town. It is noisy till after 11 pm. Room had no heating or cooling other than a space heater in closet- fire alarm was also in closet- minus batteries. Shower had very little pressure for hot water. Housekeeping just walks into the room without knocking. On the upside, place does have some interesting hot water baths and a pool. So far, the Rotorua smell has not been too bad. All in all, I would say this hotel is not quite worth the price I paid for it.

It was a lovely place clean and tidy but needs some TLC

This motel was by chance a perfect location for our evening at Te Puia, for a Maori performance and meal. We could not have chosen better from that point of view. We walked to and from the site, not needing to use our car. Fab! The motel is in need of an upgrade - for crockery, cutlery etc (all was hotch-potch, didn't match and not enough) as well as furniture which was functional and seen better days! Staff were delightful, friendly, helpful. Cannot fault them at all!

price ,clean, hospitality were all brilliant

Basement room with very little lighting. Cut and scratched table top with white residue on it that looked like it had been used to cut up drugs. Paint chipped. Bathroom looked like it was in need of a thorough clean. I didn’t stay!

This is a 1960s style property and is locked into the same area but with 2024 prices. The fridge hadnt been emptied for days as the food in it was frozen. The main light didnt work and management didnt want to be disturbed. No bedside lights and only one wall light no where near a bed. The was a bag of flour in one kitchen drawer. Whilst it is a little cheaper than its neighbours paying a little more will provide a better stay. I was concerned after making the booking and paying it was being used as an emergency accommodation facility such were the clientele and standard of the room.

good value for money accomodation. close to te puia and not too far for main city centre.

A comfortable bed and a decent shower are important to me and both met my expectations. Unfortunately the property is old and tired. Microwave only in unit. Soundproofing was poor However, price we paid reflected this.

Swimming options . Car park is so far away from room

Place is rumdown - the wall mounted TV was in a very silly spot and cannot be viewed as mounted almost below the bed level when lying down Mouldy shower Uncomfortable soft beds which had us both wake up with sore backs Ciggarette buds strewn over the back garden door PLace just looks run down - Sorry to say

The motel itself is very old.l cannot understand why they put kitchenette when they dont have all for cooking.

This is the most basic of motels

Bedrooms were clean and tidy . Staff member at the counter was friendly and welcoming. Toilets light was not working, steps leading up to the room was very dirty.

Very friendly & polite Manager

The place was run down, floor was sticky and sound proofing wasn't the greatest.

Whenever a truck went past, which was quite often as it's the main road.

The rooms had empty drink bottles and cans in it when we got there, we checked in at 4.30pm there were whole bags of rubbish sitting outside our room. Arguing going on in the unit above us all night. Reception tried to charge us a $200 bond for the night on top of that.

It was cheap but clean.The mattress on the bed was dreadful - had lumpy springs! It was great having a kitchenette but had we not had our camping gear we would have struggled to prepare our food as there were very few utensils.

The motel was really close to the attractions I wanted to visited whilst I was in Rotarua, as it was at the top of Fenton Street. Although for some it may be a bit out of the way, it’s about a half hour walk from the centre of town. The room was clean, and tidy, and the kitchen area had everything I needed. The bathroom was fine, and I appreciated the toiletries. If you are a light sleeper, you may be disturbed by the trucks that run late/early, but I imagine that goes for quite a lot of the accommodation in the same area. I would definitely suggest checking out The Redwoods Forest if you’re in the area too!

No body was there to welcome us . Got the keys from key box. No body was in the reception office till our stay . The toilet sink was making leakage sound all the time could not sleep. They clean the room next day but forgot to fill the supplies needed. When we checkout a person showed in reception to take the keys but he ran away before we start our car . Hopeless stay

The fridge was well stocked,plenty of tea,coffee etc. The unit was cold and there were insufficient blankets for the double bed. The heater was used but we didn't want to leave it on all night.

Overall condition of the room needed upgrading. Felt very old and mouldy. Staff were friendly and helpful

Clean & dry but traffic noise

The Manager was very pleasant and helpful as the TV wasnt working and it still wasn't great after a cable change. He offered a heater. But you get what you paid for your room.

Heater didn't work. A replacement supplied.

The unit we were in needs upgrading.. The ceiling popcorn stuff, is crumbling off. Maybe also needs checking for Aspestos. The slider door and windows were Whistling with the high winds, which made the curtains move.. .The staff ? Manager was very welcoming, he tuned the tv in and also bought in a new heater as the room was very cold.. We both enjoyed a good conversation.. The linen on bed and bathroom were very clean.. Extra pillows would of been good to use, although i did have my own pillow, but hubby had to use a sofa cushion under the supplied pillow, as we both needed 2 pillows... The traffic was noisy, but that because a main arterial road into the city.. i would return if the room was tidied up.. cheers..and thank you

Amenities very old and unkempt.
