Pishill with Stonor accommodation from NZ$97

Arrived to see posters indicating that a boiler was being replaced between 10pm and 4am - there was no mention of this prior to or after booking. Fire alarm went off at 1.45am, spoke to reception who said it was a false alarm. The fire alarm light kept flashing after this. I went to reception at 2.15am who told me the light wasn't flashing as they'd reset the alarm (they didn't ask to check). Went back to my room and at about 2.30am reception called to ask me if the light was still flashing (the light they said wasn't flashing). I was then woken around 3.15am by the sound of drilling or sawing from the boiler work - the sound of which had been going on during the night. The alarm light was still flashing at this point as well. Worst hotel stay I've ever had. No hint of an apology from reception staff at check out who merely said they'd inform tech services to look at the light.

Breakfast was great and included. This is not a suitable property for those with disabilities. I was put on the third floor with no lift. Despite contacting the property and receiving what I thought was assurance of on site disabled parking, I was sent to a car park a fifteen minute walk away.

Where do I start… check in-no one took a deposit so had trouble with having to pay for everything as I couldn't bill room until I finally sorted it at the front desk. Room key didn’t work second day because my reservation of adding a night seemed to confuse staff so had to be at the front desk every morning until that was sorted. Room restock was HORRIBLE. Had to call every night of a 4 night stay because staff had not refreshed at least 1-5things such ascoffee, tissue, sugar, water, spoon, coffee cups. They didn’t clean room, wipe fixtures, or vacuum. Bed was made by throwing up the duvet and haphazardly throwing the pillows on the bed. Had a young woman masseuse who thought she was a medical doctor and I had to tell her 4 times to stop working on my back in a sensitive area and she told me “but you are tight all over” so we work where it’s needed!!!!!!! Excuse me I have been in this body for 60 years and I know it better than you little girl!!!! Room was noisy as it was right next to the utility closet where the staff made a huge ruckus getting the vacuums out at 7:30am every morning. Fire alarm went off randomly one morning at 8am-no communication, information. Nothing. I ignored it as the service was so subpar I figure it was a false alarm..and it was but it went on for 20 minutes. You get complimentary items first night but then couldn’t get them again even though I offered to pay for them to get them. Got impression all staff just did the BARE minimum
