The service for us was great considering we did a last minute booking.
The rooms were clean and well maintained, and they had the thickest motel towels of out whole New Zealand trip.

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

The indoor natural hot springs pool could definately use a face lift...it just appeared old and not maintained. The room was nice and clean. Good stay.

Very neat and sparkling clean!
We travel a fair amount and I have never stayed in such a neat, tidy and clean unit. It was a pleasure staying here and I would highly recommend it.

Was disappointed that they did not let us know that the pool was under maintenance. I specifically booked at this place as I had my 7 year old Granddaughter with us and she was looking forward to the swim.

Clean and tidy room. Bed was very comfortable. Close to hospital.
Issue was with the shower pressure as it was very low. Also cold water ran brown on the day we left.

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 liked the chairs outside for people to sit on at the end of the day. The location was very handy. TV on the was quite small. There was no AC unit, and no flyscreens on the windows. mosquitos came into the room.
