Bed was comfortable and clean and tidy ##### chris Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ellen 20 Sept 2024 We didn’t have a fridge in our room however the manager offered us a room with a fridge in it. It was very nice and thoughtful of him for the offer but we were happy with the room we had. He offered a great Service! ##### Ellen Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Robyn 15 Mar 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities For the price, it was decent... but if you ignore the unkept outside, ripped curtains on the right of the entry, ripped carpet on the stairs...the room was really clean! The shower was on another level old and dirty. There was, we assumed, full time residents staying there. On the corner of a main road, it was noisy and with no air conditioning, we had to have windows open.One 'share' kitchen was old and dirty with a bar fridge full of others things. It should be advertised as a 'back packers' accommodation. Cheap but not real cheerful! ##### Robyn Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Manon 23 Oct 2023 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room we had was very nice especially for the price, it’s mostly the decoration from outside but for a night or two it’s absolutely fine! Only problem we had : no power on the plug to be able to charge our phones for all the night. Otherwise, the staff is super nice and welcoming I really appreciate it! ##### Manon Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### DEBORAH 12 May 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Large spacious room. TV didnt work. Not enough pillows. ##### DEBORAH Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### kelly 1 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service This property was clean and had everything I could need, behind a locked door. The only problem with it was I felt like I was in a resident evil movie. Would I stay again ? Yes I would ##### kelly Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Corina 8 Sept 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Windows tied to radiator to keep them closed. No hot water for showering. Staff not prepared to compensate for lack of hot water and just seemed to not care. ##### Corina Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Steve 23 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service I strongly recommend reading the properties website before booking - they are awesome and very accurate in their description of what the property is and isn't. We stayed for 3 nights over long weekend - arriving after 3am in morning (pre arranged). The property was super helpful and flexible and made the process of getting into our room at that time simple and easy. Apart from a quick, friendly conversation on the first morning with one of the cleaners we actually had no face to face interactions with the team over the whole stay - including checking out on the final day. If you want a quiet, basic room at a great price - this is a great option. If you want heaps of extras, a 5 star experience from staff or the latest mod cons - you probably need to look elsewhere. I would definitely stay here again if in similar circumstances. ##### Steve Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Anita 14 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness the room was very clean. We have stayed here before and were curious as to what had been done. The new owners have only recently taken over and they certainly have their work cut out. The hotel has great potential and we are happy someone is doing it up. If you are planning to stay be aware it is a work site and does not have all the amenities of a hotel, but the owners and staff are friendly the rooms are clean and the beds comfortable. we had dinner in the bistro which was good we were able to purchase wine and beer from across the road as they do not serve alcohol. we will visit again to see how they progress. ##### Anita Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Shona 11 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service It was a grand old lady in its day and is now being restored. Clean and tidy. Shower had good pressure. Walking distance shops. ##### Shona Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Falcons Nest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cromwell-Hotels-Falcons-Nest.h31053004.Hotel-Information) > > [Millbrook Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Millbrook-Resort.h584862.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sands Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Omapere-Hotels-The-Heads-Hokianga.h1217506.Hotel-Information) > > [Kelly Rd Cambridge Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Kelly-Rd-Cambridge-Lodge.h17679551.Hotel-Information) > > [Scenic Hotel Punakaiki](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greymouth-Hotels-Punakaiki-Resort.h982476.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramada Resort By Wyndham Rotorua Marama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Ramada-Resort-By-Wyndham-Rotorua-Marama.h3512184.Hotel-Information) > > [The Duke of Marlborough Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Russell-Hotels-The-Duke-Of-Marlborough-Hotel.h1038082.Hotel-Information) > > [Copthorne Hotel Greymouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greymouth-Hotels-Kingsgate-Hotel-Greymouth.h12933.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Hilton-Queenstown-Resort-Spa.h4268206.Hotel-Information) > > [Hahei Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hahei-Hotels-Hahei-Holiday-Resort.h9869496.Hotel-Information) > > [The Amberley Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amberley-Hotels-The-Amberley-Hotel.h83782595.Hotel-Information) > > [Porters Boutique Hotel & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Havelock-North-Hotels-Porters-Boutique-Hotel.h15965962.Hotel-Information) > > [Treetops Lodge & Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Treetops-Lodge-Estate.h912953.Hotel-Information) > > [Anglers paradise and great family holiday place](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makarora-Hotels-Anglers-Paradise-And-Great-Family-Holiday-Place.h37278832.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Queenstown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Queenstown.h4412246.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardrona Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Cardrona-Hotel.h9629768.Hotel-Information) > > [Kinloch Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Kinloch-Wilderness-Retreat.h3848386.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Richmond-Hotels-Richmond-Holiday-Park.h29218591.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Ridge Studios and Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Te-Anau-Hotels-Blue-Ridge-Boutique-Bed-Breakfast.h9625233.Hotel-Information) > > [Bayside Holiday Units](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitianga-Hotels-Bayside-Holiday-Units.h49101011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hidden Lake Hotel and Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Hidden-Lake-Hotel-And-Apartments.h29081973.Hotel-Information) > > [Distinction Heritage Gateway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Omarama-Hotels-Heritage-Gateway-Hotel.h519242.Hotel-Information) > > [Beachfront Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitianga-Hotels-Beachfront-Resort.h6960059.Hotel-Information) > > [Rosewood Matakauri](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Matakauri-Lodge.h1097561.Hotel-Information) > > [Parkview Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/National-Park-Village-Hotels-Parkview-Apartments.h32421560.Hotel-Information) > > [Waitomo Caves Guest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Waitomo-Caves-Hotels-Waitomo-Caves-Guest-Lodge.h16121337.Hotel-Information) > > [Te Anau Lakeview Holiday Park & Motels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Te-Anau-Hotels-Te-Anau-Lakeview-Kiwi-Holiday-Park-Motels.h4192650.Hotel-Information) > > [The Barn Cabins & Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marahau-Hotels-The-Barn-Cabins-Camping.h15886153.Hotel-Information) ---
