Roosters are a big noisy issue !!!! No sleep and need culling as it’s terrible to listen too 24/7\. ##### Leanne Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Maureen 8 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication I booked for Tia Kautai Studio but got told at check-in the unit we booked had a tenant occupyinh for another week. It wasn't available for us and even staff don't understand how that happened. We just needed a place to crash for the day before departure flight. Still happy they managed to find us a subsitute @ Kikii Inn suites which is reasonably clean and fits our family needs. We had a restful time before the night flights.
