Summary: Satisfied
Gregory May 28, 2025 06:25:10 PM
Summary: It was fine - relatively safe - a bit loud till late at night - but expected for being just above a pub. Rooms are pretty austere. I think a complementary water bottle or two would have been helpful during my late night search for water.

Summary: This property's accommodation needs significant updating, whilst the bedding was clean, the general appearance of the room was shabby, the curtains were halfway down the windows, the window latches were broken, so we could not close them to block out any noise or the street lights right outside the window. The cost didn't not match the accommodation. I'm unlikely to recommend this to anyone, unless they need urgent one night accommodation and there is nothing else available.

Summary: Did not feel safe so I didn’t end up staying. There were undesirable people and the shared bathrooms made me not want to have to walk down the hall way by myself. If my husband was there I would put up with it. I didn’t realise this particular room did not have a bathroom. It was clean enough but yeah I didn’t feel safe. My key was put back in the return within 15 minutes and I left. The staff member seemed annoyed by my checking in and I was told she’s leaving in 20 minutes so if I needed something it had to be quick. I ended up on a friends couch back in Morrinsville.

Summary: It's what you'd expect of an in modernized 1950s hotel. The room I was in cost 140 for the night. Ensuuite with leaking taps,dirty toilet brush water,no bedside lamp,no radio,no television. Over priced.

Summary: Pros: beds were nice, bathroom was very basic but met our needs Cons: no tv, no phone, no A/C (although it wasn't needed), no bedside lamps, no safety latch on door, noise from bar below (not too bad though) Just meets the bare minimum. The staff were nice.

Summary: If you try to sleep a saturday night, you will be in trouble with the music coming from the bar, very noisy until 12:00PM
Sue Mar 18, 2025 02:02:47 AM
Summary: Tired facilities but comfortable. We had a two bedroom unit with ensuite. It was a bit noisy ( traffic and people outside). Lovely meal in the restaurant. Great checkin, pleasant and helpful staff.

Summary: Bike lock up and access could be more accessible. The food in the restaurant was delicious and fair portions.
Alexandra Mar 3, 2025 02:42:12 AM
Summary: Room wasn’t quite ready at the stated check in time — cleaners were still working upstairs. Also wasn’t an elevator that I was made aware of. Room was fine but had an odd smell to it, so I opened the window and turned on the fan. Communal fridge clearly hadn’t been cleaned. There was an open container of milk, crusty remains of a spill, and spoiled food. Unfortunately, there aren’t many options in town. Stayed here after an evening at Hobbiton and met several others staying at the hotel who had booked the same tour as me, so it was convenient to hang in the bar below until it closed.
