A sad motel, if this is what we are providing for tourists to NZ for the money they charge, terrible

Location is good, though being on a main road is noisey. The cold main pool is good too.

The unit we had (29) is in a very very degraded and poor condition, poor ventilation in the bathroom has left mould around the ceiling, the sliding door is not wide enough to ensure privacy for people inside. Vanity broken. General finish is totally bad. Considering how full the place was and what they charge, some money set aside for a lick of paint and some maintenance would be worthwhile. The fridge was not working and we lost our food overnight, compensation was worked out once this was found to be the case (but I would of preferred the fridge to work) Parking in front of unit 29 is terrible, a man hole in front of the unit was cordoned off so we had to negotiate with the people next door to adjust the cars for who was leaving earlier the next day. Give this place a wide berth if you are looking to take the family to Tauranga.

Pools are fun but dirty and broken ( main pool is clean but broken tiles everywhere)

We liked the main pool again very run down though , the hot pool in our room was great but again run down and rusty pipes etc

Dangerous things everywhere , low power points , broken tiles , mould and severely under maintained pools

Disappointed, used to be a great spot

Strong shower pressure

Dirty, rundown, broken chair, didnt let us know till we arrived that the hot tub wasnt working. Beds were worn out. Has gone seriously downhill since my last stay a few years ago.

Great value for price, the lounge and bedroom was great- but the beds were too uncomfortable

The bed was incredibly uncomfortable, I didn't sleep well. There were also not enough blankets. Not very sound proof rooms

Perfect

Family of 3, 2 adults & 3 year old. Enough space, outside pool was nice and warm, thermal was amazing. Sky is a great bonus for kids cartoons.

New paint for thermal would be good but it was still great

For the most part we were happy with the accomodation as we were only there for one night.

The location is great, very close to everywhere we wanted to go, however it is located on a busy corner, so exiting onto the road was quite scary.

We were only provided with half a roll of toilet paper for 5 people, so we had to purchase more. In hindsight we could have just asked the manager for more, as he is lovely, but I feel this is something that should have been already done. The bath upstairs is in the bedroom with the beds which was a bit strange but we weren’t planning on using it anyway, however it was not cleaned very well and there was yellow liquid in the bottom of it. Just other little bits and pieces like, I found tooth floss picks behind one of the beds on the floor and a carpenters pencil under the downstairs bed & black mould was on the ceiling, so cleanliness perhaps needs to improve. It is a dated property so don’t expect all the mod-cons. The fridge also wasn’t cold. There isn’t ample parking, we had 3 cars and managed but if the units next to us had been booked out with multiple people too, our 3 cars wouldn’t have all had space.
