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.

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.

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.

Tired but comfortable.
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.

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

Response from Neeraj on Oct 8, 2023
Dear Tajinder, thank you very much for leaving a review for us. I am sad to see your review, you booked a budget property and wanted 5 star facilities. You don't even know budget properties run by single handed person or with very low staff and they have to do the other task too. And you mentioned there was no one at reception during your stay, then who close and open the reception?? I was there all the time but doing other task at property. I can't sit at reception at all the time. You can complain if your phone didn't get answered Or there was no one came at reception when you press the bell. common don't lie please because its too much to put in a fake story. You were here to enjoy Rotorua your stay not to keep an eye on me or on my staff. I hope you will understand what I am trying to stay. Once again thank you very much ! Regards Neeraj Saxena

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
