"For the suite with kitchen, I originally booked a 70-square-meter two-room cottage, but when it came time to tell us that the toilet was broken, we replaced us with a two-bedroom apartment and a studio, not next to each other. Not very happy, so the front desk arranged two adjacent two-bedroom apartments. In fact, we don't need so many rooms, we just want to live in the kind of cabin we booked. But it had no choice but to. Said to be Resort, it is actually the standard of Motel, but the Motel is a little tasteful. It is clean. There are plants and trees in the small yard. It is lovely and comfortable to live, except that the bed is too soft. There are convenience stores, restaurants and fish and chips shops in town when you go out, and you can walk to the beach. I am generally satisfied."

"It's like a giant campsite community. It sucks there is little accommodation at hot water beach but the location is like a 10 min walk to the beach which is nice. I was in a small hut that had 4 twin mattresses (2 bunk beds). There were spiders and bugs up in the corners and of course I was top bunk. The mattress was also shot, a curvature body shape in the middle. The showers and toilets were clean and easy to access/use. The wifi is annoying as the password changes daily and of course you cant use it when you wake up the next day. Bonus there was a friendly cat walking around I was petting. I wish they had more cabins with just a bed and kitchenette to book."

"This is the only hotel booked on Trip.com on this trip to New Zealand. When booking this hotel, it was completely its location. It was just the ideal place to rest in my self-driving. We arrived at ten o'clock in the night. The location is very good. It feels like a manor room. Dong has been waiting for us. Later, I heard that the house was moved as a whole. The landlord is our Chinese. It is easy to communicate. The room is also very comfortable. There is a large double bed and a small single bed. There is no problem for a family of three. We will soon fall asleep. The next morning. The landlord prepared a variety of highlights in the sun for us. After dinner, I saw alpacas babies at home. You can take alpacas for breakfast and play with them. The yard covers an area of 20,000 square meters. It is too big. It is full of various plants. It is too interesting. Later, I chatted with the landlord to know. The former New Zealand cherry blossom festival was held by the landlord to have guests over 10,000. In short, this is one of our favorite homestays on this trip to New Zealand."

Parking was fine and easy, so good they have a heated pool as it would be useless in Winter, they also have the Sauna which is great it just such a shame the grotto is out of order and was told it has been that way for a while. Something like that should be sorted at a last resort just rebuild it if it cannot be fixed customers expect it Bathroom was good with a nice big spa bath and this is by far the best bed we have ever slept in. It is huge! You could fix 6 people in it if haha!"

"Enjoyed my one night stay on a Thursday night in October. Room - Superior Queen #110. $92 nzd. Pros -Cheap -Comfy mattress -Great location -Clean -Spacious room and bathroom -Heat pump which was on when i arrived which kept the room at a comfy temp. -Kind front desk woman on arrival. -Old world architecture. Cons -Noisy heat pump (albeit grateful there was one) -No sound insulation so can hear footsteps easily. -Bed was 2 x singles pushed together and had to sleep either side of the gap. Tip - book a superior room type. It's my experience these are better quality. When you book the lead in room category (deluxe) they're cheaper for a reason. I would return but not on a Friday or Saturday as the sound of the street noise and night clubs would be heard easily. Thanks for a nice stay."

The room we received was nothing like the room advertised on your website. We made our booking through *********** based on the photographs, which portrayed a modern, clean, stylish, and well-maintained room. Unfortunately, the reality was completely different. Instead of the fresh, contemporary room shown in the photos, we were given a room that felt old, tired, and poorly maintained. The flooring was covered with worn, old carpets and rugs rather than the clean, modern finishes we expected. The furnishings were dated, the overall appearance was shabby, and the room looked as though it had not been renovated in many years. It felt unclean and lacked the standard of comfort and quality that your promotional images suggested. To make matters worse, the fan in Room 412 was not working, making the room uncomfortable. Throughout the night, every time someone walked along the corridor, the old wooden floorboards creaked loudly, disturbing our sleep. These maintenance issues significantly affected our comfort and overall experience. To be completely honest, the condition of the room reminded us more of emergency housing than accommodation offered by a hotel with your name and reputation. The difference between what was advertised and what we actually received was shocking. We specifically chose your hotel because of the high-quality images displayed on ***********. Those images created an expectation of a premium experience, but the room we received fell far short of that expectation. Had the room been accurately represented, we would have made a different booking decision.

We had a very good discounted price for the night, the room was very comfortable and clean with a good bathroom. Unfortunately the units are not very well sound proofed and in our instance the occupants of the room next door were very inconsiderate and stayed up very late, even after asking them in person to go to sleep at 1am it took another while before it got quiet. With the bar and restaurant next door a very convenient spot
