Liked: Cleanliness
Upon arrival I feel as though customer service could have been a little warmer, more smiles would help. Apart from that our stay was delightful, we booked the double pod which was perfect for the night. I enjoyed the area and the amenities it provided. The shower drain did not work properly which was highly annoying & the place smelled heavily of cleaning product, I would suggest a candle for people to burn whilst being there. Was a really nice time though and for the money it was worth it. The pod was nice and quiet at night! Overall we would rate it 7.5/10. Kia Ora!

CONVENIENT LOCATION

This hotel is a convenient stopover for me on my way north as it has easy access to and from State Highway 1.It has a good range of dining options virtually on the same premise. Interior is looking a bit dated and good do with a refresh but otherwise very comfortable.
