Dirty and definitely needs an investment and a refurb Had to ask for soap, milk when asked was told was not supplied even though tea and coffee that was provided in the room The hosts were friendly and it was cheapest accommodation in town. The WiFi was intermittent and was easier to just use data on the phones. Lots of noise and vibration from the road especially from trucks passing by. Mould on bathroom ceiling and the fixtures in bad repair, missing handles, cigarette burns on the sink, light bulbs missing etc Ok for cheap place to say if you are a heavy sleeper and can look past everything else

Great value, everything we needed was there and to top it off the pool was heated naturally with the thermal hot water that was located at the property

The room itself was comfortable. However, the rest of the place seemed to be in great disrepair. We weren't able to park outside our room, because of the condition of the drive. It was very hard to rouse the managers. The hot spring was right outside our window, so we would get whiffs of sulphur coming through.

A bit run down, located fairly central however. Chose it on a last minute, good enough for a quick sleep and go.

The pictures of the property need to be updated to the true conditions. Dirty walls, ants in the bed, shower absolutely filthy, dirty cutlery Free internet gotta get on first!!!!, 2 towels for 4 people. Smoke butts all around the place it also looks like people are long term resident's . This place is an absolute joke. Dont be deceived by the photos you will be very disappointed like we were. For some reason Rotorua was fully booked so couldn't find another place.
