Very easy check-in and checkout. Free laundry services and convenient location. However, the facilities were very dated and in desperate need of TLC. Carpet next to the bathroom was damp with black mould all around the shower.

The most part that I want are : - We got ensuite in our room. Extra toilet and shower room is very convenient for 5 of us. - There is washing machine with powder in our unit, free to use of course. - There is drying machine outside the unit and is free to use. - The housekeeper is very friendly and accommodating. - Property is clean and smells clean. - We got it cheap. - The spa pool is big and my kids enjoyed it.

Underrated hidden gem

Nice refurbished rooms, new paint, carpets, bathrooms etc. All new. Nice area outside, quite large with outdoor spa. Lots of space for small family. This is a little gem and would stay again.

This little motel was good. It was clean and had parking right out front of the door. It’s a small place and did the trick for us. The internet could be improved a great deal. The TV was affected during the rain shower. Heating worked well. Comfortable stay.

It was such a nice place to stay for a few days only downside was the parking issues on our last-night someone took our park & then threw everyone else off, & just maybe provide guests with couple more towels if they staying over 3 nights :) & just wifi didn't work correctly for us or the tv but good for us to spend quality time together & get kids off devices def stay again a

We booked this unit on the day of arrival during Matariki weekend. We were pleasantly surprised at all the features which made our stay really comfortable and easy. The unit was very clean and modern. Beds were very comfy and linen, towels and toiletries were all clean and readily available. Awesome having a surprise ensuite in the front room as an addition to the full bathroom. Great for our family of 5. Lovely front room and awesome options on TV, free wifi and comfort furniture. Easy check in without staff needed. All info was provided by Expedia and easy to access the room via keypad and a spare access card that was hanging inside. The unit was warm and there were lots of blankets and a heater which we used being the middle of winter. It even had a washing machine which we didn’t use but could have - as there was a dryer available next to the unit for guests to use free of charge. Well stocked and handy kitchen and good sized fridge freezer. The greatest tick box for me was the family sized spa which all four of our family happily lounged in and enjoyed. Great to be super close to New World and a few minutes drive from town and amenities making it such a handy location to stay. Excellent value for money. We were in unit 6 in the back corner a which suited us perfectly. Awesome stay and very pleased with everything. We will be back again!

Very nice remodel of an older motel. Room was clean and modernly fashioned; bathroom was large and modern, shower was small, but very nice; Lots of seating options in the room; kitchen was well appointed with anything you may need. Easy walking to downtown area and town park. I would definitely stay here again and I do highly recommend it. This property is a neighborhood. Our only complaint was the neighbors behind the property partied all weekend, all hours. I just wish they had invited us over 😏

Staff nice and kind. However, found a toenail in the bed in bedroom. Sock found under the same bed, did not belong to us. Ants on bathroom floor. Beautiful kitchen & modern look throughout. Cleanliness was very poor. Would not stay there again for the price we paid.

Check in wasn’t a good experience, we entered the “office”, rang the bell on the desk without any response. Then we knocked on the door behind the desk and a lady emerged but was not friendly at all mentioning that this wasn’t an office saying this was he “house “ and a reception or office and then reluctantly showed us where our unit was and how to access it

Got to the motel, I was told by the receptionist on the phone that they did not have any vacancies. I explained that we had paid already through Expedia and we got a text and email notification about the confirmation. It was a disappointment. The receptionist apologised and told us that there was nothing they could do. He suggested that we ring Expedia. I've sent an email asking for a full refund and also sent an online through expedia's website, but have not received any email with regards to this problem. The issue was between Expedia and Aurora City Suites Motel in Rotorua. I hope that they can sort this out and refund our money of $263.99.
