My bathroom ceiling was covered in mold. The pillow cases on one of the beds were filthy. The rooms all smelt damp, fusty and mouldy. The reception area for the hotel is actually next door in a neighbouring hotel which was inconvenient. The guy on reception was pleasant and helpful but when I told him I couldn’t stay in that room he didn’t immediately express any concern regarding the state of my room and did not ask to come and inspect the room. He took me back over to the hotel and showed me 3 other rooms I could choose from and only one of those was free of mould. This is definately the worst accomodation I have stayed at in NZ. The pictures look nice enough but the place is completely run down and disgusting.

It did not feel safe. I used a key to get into the place but there were three unlocked open doors to the outside. The people at the hotel next door run it and sent a guy over to check. He closed two of the doors and stated the third needed to be left open for people parking to be able to enter. This made the place cold also. This is a correctable situation and I would stay again if this was resolved.

Brilliant service for a hotel this well priced. Very nice large bedroom. Private bathroom. Coffee tea facilities. Bed extremely comfortable. Beautifully made with fresh clean linen.
