Cozy place, clean in the middle of town. I asked for a fan and got one straight away. Also asked to check out a little later, which was no problem. Will go back again.

Too loud
Like the location and old worldliness of the hotel. The nights were very bad - so loud both music and staff banging furniture around late at night.

Basic and noisy
Pretty basic with shared bathroom and toilet, not my kind of thing but had no choice, very noisy due to bare floors and thin walls. Good food and beer tho, and staff were great.

It is an old Historic building, but it is located perfectly. The staff are laid back, but propmt and helpful. Plenty of hot water.

Clean and comfy take earplugs
The room was simple, clean and comfortable but paint was peeling on the ceiling. Bathroom was shared and average. Staff were pleasant but forgot to mention the wifi password on the back of the key. Take earplugs if you stay on a Saturday or Sunday as the Yot Club rages pretty late.

The Wifi was the only good thing about this hotel
Third attempt to leave a review. worst hotel experience I have ever had in my entire life. And I've traveled extensively in numerous countries. Check-in includes waiting in line with people who are ordering food and drinks. When I stated I was there for the night, the waitress looked at my family with wide eyes and said, "You know it's a shared toilet?" It was indeed, shared toilets and showers down a long hall. No sink in our room. No sink in the common area. Cracked and peeling paint everywhere. There is a loud nightclub across the street, the music kept us up past midnight. At 7:30 AM we were awakened by the sounds of vacuuming and cleaning in the hotel. I asked a staff member when checkout was and was told 10 am. I started doing some work and a staff member came at 9:20 to ask if I was extending? I said no. At 9:30 she came back to say she needed to begin cleaning. I stated I was told checkout was at 10? She said yes, would have to have everything out by 10. I only had my purse and laptop and agreed I would be out. Then they fired up abnociously loud and annoying music in the hall. The whole time, the manager was yelling, swearing and complaining at the staff. At 9:45 the person in charge walked into my room, saw I was still there, swore at me and left. I then went to the common area to finish work. I went to checkout and nobody was at the counter. This was a highly disappointing experience, especially given the high reviews on hotels .com.

Nice friendly helpful staff. Very clean. Nice little lounge area. The toilet/shower facilities are bit limited, but that isnt surprising as it is a historic hotel.

Was warned there would be a little bit of noise. Instead, it sounded like the crap American cover band playing in the bar behind the hotel was playing in my room. When the band and it’s minions quieted down enough to hear yourself think, the walls revealed just how paper thin they are and provided a full disclosure on the conversations the neighbors were having. Generous to call the mattress a mattress. Overall, its a really cool hotel and there’s definitely potential. But I challenge the ownership team to have a sleep there during the weekend. And not completely revamp the rooms afterwards.

This is an old NZ hotel/pub. The facilities are basic but so is the price. If you're there on a weekend expect lots of noise/music from the pub downstairs. It is a basic but very clean room and there are shared toilet showers but, then again, it's 1/2 the price of other types of accommodation. The pub food, beer and is surprisingly good.
