Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Broken chair in my room, unsafe to sit on. Chipped paintwork and drill holes in the room. Hard to close doors. Hole in the floor under the carpet in the hallway. No electric jug in room. Glad I only had one night there and left early. Man outside my room asking for cigarettes and followed me to reception. Made a hasty departure. Spend extra money and don't stay here. Run down and old.

Requested MGR, told nit on duty weekends!! COMPLETELY DISGUSTING! UNHUMANE! It’s called BASIC NEEDS! Paid $100 NZD for a night! Could’ve stayed in HOSTELfor half the price with BASIC NEEDS, a bed and a warm water! Hot water was burning HOT and short period then stayed COLD. UNBELIEVABLE!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Service from the receptionist was welcoming, easy to understand when she explained the the layout of the hotel, the timetable of transport concerning travel from and to airports. The meals were great as were the staff services. Although I had a good night sleep, it was challenging due to daylight saving. I'm used to sleeping in a dark room. No fault of the hotel.

I don’t recommend this place
Terrible place, pictures on hotels.com are not the same in the real. It super dirty the hall, washrooms, room, first room didn’t even had a telephone, the door didn’t closed properly because was broken, we felt unsafe. We complain about the cleaning and the give us another room but we have to pay more. Tha second room was 5/10 in cleaning, tv didn’t work, wall looks in renovation.

There is no reception. The property is now run by the motel next door like an old annex. It is very old and dilapidated. Good Bed. Great hot, powerful shower. Otherwise ready to be bulldozed.

All in all a decent place to rest your head before your flight. The lady at checkin was very friendly and helpful with any information. And the included bus ride back and forth from the airport was certainly a plus. The place could definitely use some touch up. Like new paint in the rooms and maybe a carpet steam clean throughout. Sheets were fresh and clean. Pillows were soft and comfortable. Bathroom was clean. The floor fan was very dusty but i cleaned it myself, i honestly didnt mind that. Overall the place needs some work. But I dont think its the nightmare hotel like i read online, at least in my experience.
