Great place to stay. Comfortable spacious unit. Bed a bit to firm for my liking and was pleased to have my own pillow with me. However, we would stay again.

Tauranga central

Nice generous room. The overall condition of the place needs some touch up especially the shower pressure. Sky TV is great. Central location. The themal pool was good. I would have loved it to be hot rather than luke warm. Staff was great to deal with

Liked: Cleanliness
Old and dated unit, door didn’t shut tight so it banged in the wind. Toilet was small and cramped as was the vanity. Needed updating in all areas, the bed was uncomfortable, no electric blanket and heat pump. Was clean and tidy but definitely not worth the price we paid.

We stayed one witch said $109 that was okay , Come the next day 20 minutes after we checked out and got down the road I noticed it charged me $189? When we confronted the Indian at the front office he denied it & said they charged $109 and to not listen to whatever , By this point my partner was overheated witch would’ve ended bad so I told him leave it but I will be putting a complaint in don’t worry about that . - Now that room was okay don’t get wrong but for the price of $189 I could’ve got a better motel closer to where I was meant to be .
