The location is great. Convenient to Rotorua dining, shopping and activities. However, the property is horrible. The facility is poorly maintained and the renovations being done are low-grade craftsmanship. For example, the paint has dried drips throughout the trimwork. The walls are paper thin, the shower is way too small and the water pressure and temperature regulation is horrible. The property should be razed and rebuilt.

Two night stay

The room was very comfy, the fire alarm did go off three times during our two night stay between 11pm and 7am. The recpetionist was very nice and was greatful we were understanding, a complimentary breakfast would have been nice for the inconvenience, but aside from that beautiful cozy room. The pools were not in use due to maintenance which was a shame, I can imagine when they are they are enjoyable.

Only redeeming factor of this place was the staff, the building and associated areas of this facility need to be ripped down.

As some of the reviews say is in under renovation, luckily our room was one of the renovated ones. It was clean and spacious. The only thing was the the outside of the Motel and the common areas were ran down.

We’re family with kids stayed there & the parking assigned too far from the room. Upstairs room was inconvenient with family with kids. The amenities were not refilled. However, the manager brought refill of shampoo, shower jell & hand wash after informing. Given only 2 towels for 4 guests. It was quite expensive compared to the cost & seems proper care wasn't taken preparing the room for check in.
