Disliked: Amenities
V clean tidy motel room with small kitchenette (no hobs) just fridge kettle and microwave. Good bathroom, towels etc.. The motel is two levels and unfortunately close to a noisy intersection and road. If you are assigned a downstairs room (I was) you will also hear plumbing and footfall from upstairs. My trusty earplugs were not sufficient for this stay... Unlucky perhaps.

Nice little room, good location. Helpful front desk staff and good parking. It’s next to a geothermal park which is a blessing and a curse. You are close enough to walk to this free geothermal park but the smell easily made its way to the motel and we found it a bit overwhelming at times.

We had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. There is a fascinating park opposite with geothermal features and a hot water foot bath. We enjoyed visits to Whakarewaewa Maori village and Waiotapu, both excellent. There were lots of other things nearby to see and do in Rotorua, we felt the property location was good for everything.

The staff at the hotel were its best feature. The room was clean and had everything we needed, but could use some updating. The laundry facility was nice and offered at a very good price for washing and drying. The WIFI needs to be faster and more reliable. They definitely need faster and more reliable

The room was tiny for a motel not in a big city. There was no space on the floor to open a big luggage. It's the size of a ship cruise room! The small garbage can was on top of the microwave which was on top of the counter.
