the front of the building
My room was filthy, there were left over bottles and sop on the window sill in the shower, and scraps in the rubbish bin.
There was mold in the bathroom and the room was extremely dated- It was right next to a cleaning supply closet so the noise was bad. I was so late for my appointments that I never had a single minute to talk to anyone about this- But feel for 160 dollars I have stayed in places 300x nicer, and cleaner. Feel ripped off.

We booked here for the spa pool and pool for the kids
Everything was run down, we had to leave the door open to air the room for a good hour upon arrival, carpet was stained, sheets were thin. The gym was run down and the spa pool wasn’t very clean

Nothing.
The nightmare nightman was an absolute piece of work. His behavior was absolutely disgusting and his power tripping attitude left little to be desired.
There was a complete lack of empathy and care.
We were on a large relief mission to the Hawkes Bay just after the flooding. 2 truckloads of goods and two vehicles. After massive flooding at our own facility in Auckland that afternoon we rang to inform them we would be arriving early in the morning.
We assured that was fine as they were a 24 hour hotel.
Upon arrival at 3am the nasty little nightman had cancelled our 3 rooms and was refusing to give them back. We had 3 children with us and 3 couples and had booked 3 rooms. We had been driving since 5pm that night and were exhausted. He made us basically beg to have the accommodation back, treating us with a complete lack of care of empathy. It was gross.
He ended up not giving us our original rooms back and we had to separate a single bed into the base and the mattress on the floor just so our 2 kids could have somewhere to sleep. Despite talking to the reception in the morning we never had a follow up. I have never been treated so poorly by a hotel ever

The massive space in the executive suite. Was absolutely perfect and not cramped. The close proximity to town and a petrol station
The stairs into hotel smelt mouldy and damp.
The in house restaurant closed to early and opened late.
Our spa didn't work.n
No toaster or anything

Tired and LOTS of internal noise, sounds from other bathrooms, doors slamming all night, people knocking on doors, very noisy internal hallways. Its super old, but okay. Cleanliness average.

Breakfast and dinner okay. Lack of real coffee at Sunday breakfast was a downer
I was told at reception that if I was not in by 10 pm, I would be locked out. This is totally unacceptable in my opinion

Good Location & the Staff were cool.
My first room i got given was dirty, had dried up blood on the door frame, had a random show under one of the beds.
Second room we got given was a tad bit better but it was hot while we were staying there & the Air Condition (Heat Pump) was not working & the windows were useless!

Location is great, dinner was cooked really well
The beds in the “nicer” rooms are lumpy, the ac in the room didn’t work so the room was hot.
