The toilet could only be flushed about every 15-20 minutes at sometimes longer wait times apparently due to the low pressure to the property. Air Conditioning does now work, TV didn’t work. When I complained to reception I was pretty much told the place is falling down and it’s very unlikely the TV or aircon would ever be fixed as there’s too many things wrong with the property to ever get around to those tasks. We have stayed before and will likely stay again however work would be done to expedite some of the issues and having worked in a hotel before it’s not difficult to keep up maintenance.

Never would I have expected a hotel to not have air conditioning! Although there was an A/C wall unit, it did not work. We had to open the windows and use a fan to try to survive the warm night. It was still uncomfortably hot, and with the open windows we heard loud street noise all night. It was awful! We heard some other guests complain that they did not even have a fan. Separately, we did not have soap or shampoo in our shower. I brought this to the attention of the front desk three times over eight hours until I finally asked them to hand the soap to me so I could put it in the room. Even though we had made a non-refundable payment covering two nights, we left after one night and moved to another hotel. Although the nightly rate for this hotel is lower than other hotels nearby, it was not worth it to us.

On arrival told air con was not workig in the building in NZ hottest tie of year. We were offered a fan, which died very early in the evening. Also found that our Queen room was actually a twin (which we took becuase it was so hot and uncomfortable in the room) Toilet cistern would not full and I had to adjust to get it fixed The drain in the shower only worked slowly so it overflowed. Door on the shower had a broken hinge and left a hole that water went onto the toilet. I had been there before and it was fine, but there has obviously been no maintenance or improvements over the last half dozen years - avoid this hotel now

Dirty floor - there was a chocolate wrapper when I entered my room. Looks like it was not vacumed. Breakfast - they admitted me to their breakfast at 9:30am but was told to hurry up because they will be closing in 20min. Fire alarm - false fire alarm at the first day of my stay. It was such a hussle. Aircon - aircon unit does not work so I need to turn on the fan. Toilet - the shampoo and body wash was not refilled.

Pleasantly surprised

I was concerned about the negative reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised. Excellent and efficient check-in/check-out. Welcoming staff. Very quiet night. Easy to reach, not on a busy street (dead end). The room and bathroom are small but functional. If you are picky, you would find a few things that would benefit minor repair or painting but rally nothing major.
