Put your PHONE DOWN and get your EYES OFF the computer to welcome people and just ask guests if they are ok as they walk past your desk. The main front door was locked for a period of time leaving two of us waiting outside. It put the person at reception out when I asked if the food I paid for from the restaurant could be brought up to my room. Where is your manaakitanga (hospitality)? This was my 4th stay and sadly; I won't be going back :(

We stayed for 2 nights and our stay was included with breakfast. Checked in late at around 9pm. I was asked to pay $50 deposit at the time of check in despite paying in full for the total stay via credit card at the time of check in. I was advised that $50 will be refunded to you on the day of check out. It has been more than 48 hours and i still have not received refund. By the way i was never informed at the time of booking that they do charge deposit as well. On Saturday morning we were given buffet breakfast which was fine. We were advised that on Sunday morning the breakfast will be anything from their menu. When we went for a breakfast on Sunday we got told that we can only order two items from the menu as they can’t make anything else. Very poor communication and coordination. We were only allowed to choose from bacon and egg and omelet. My wife was a vegetarian and there were no options from their menu that we were allowed to order despite paying extra for the breakfast. We requested the staff that if we could do few hours late check out as it was a Sunday and since we did do late check in, we were hoping that they can understand us. But, no, instead they asked us to pay extra money for 2 hours of late check out. Upon requesting few times to try and understand our situation they kept not listening to us and said my boss said to charge. The front staff has language barrier and difficult to understand customers point of view. I think their hotel is 1 star. Avoid it.

Feels like it quotes a new hotel and so the rooms were nice and clean and fresh. But once this place gets a little old- it wont have much going for it. You get what you pay for after all. It was an inexpensive nightly rate and it was a cheap feeling place. The two main problems for me was that the rooms was just too hot. People had chairs propping open the doors to the hallway to get cool air in. I did the same. But that bit made it very noisy. The room had a thermostat - but heaven know why - because the reductionist told that it doesn’t control anything. “The temperature of all rooms is centrally controlled and cannot be adjusted”. Meanwhile everyone was overheating. Terrible service, pointless setup in a new hotel! Said problem - I’m assuming it’s wooden built rather than concrete. It’s just plain noisy. Can hear people walking around on the floor above. From 530am people readying to leave / not much chance of sleep after that. I won’t be staying again.

Budget- poorly run “hotel”
When we arrived the front desk were unable to find our booking, after 30 minutes waiting they gave us a room. The room sleeps 4 (as booked), there was only one chair, one stool, 2 cups, 2 glasses 2 bathtowels, one hand towel, hand soap only, no hygiene kit at all(shower caps, moisturisure, etc..), The beds are very uncomfortable. The mattresses are very soft and uneven. We paid for breakfast. The breakfast was terrible: no hot water, no coffee or tea prepared. The staff expect the guest to fill the kettle and turn it on themselves and the milk was sour. Also there were no alternative milk options such as oat or soy. The food was got cold very quickly as the plate warmers were not on. The dining area was freezing cold as the heating was not on. The breakfast option was very limited and there was no cereal for the children. When we tried to talk to reception about it, after not being interested in finding a solution just ignored us and picked up the phone to talk to someone else.

When we entered the door staff were screaming at each other and stressed. screaming at customers. No customer service. People were waiting for an hour in line to get access to their rooms. The worst experience I have ever had. Laundry was piled up round the corridors of the hotel, beds in the hallway. The place looked untidy and unprofessional. Cleaning staff were working hard but other staff not showing them respect. I will avoid this hotel in the future. Not enough safe car parking.
