Comfortable bed, clean bedding and towels The room is tired looking and needed a good clean. The amenities were really old. Outside the balustrade needed to be repainted and the grounds were need of maintenance. Perfect place for an overnight stay where you only need a bed. The tv only has free view and is so old most of the apps on it are no longer available.

Delusions of grandeur resort

A couple of positives to start. The location is good - it is right at the head of a trail that will take you to Otumuheke Stream and Huka Falls. This property is a good price but you get what you pay for, it is in appalling condition. The walls are paper thin, so it is not soundproof and very cold at night (though there are heaters). It rained one of the nights we were there and there was a small leak in the ceiling. Fortunately the drips landed next to the bed and not on top of anyone, but still, that's probably what contributed to the mould problem. The carpet was absolutely disgusting. Not recently cleaned (or even vacuumed?) at all. Not great when you have two kids who, by their nature, make regular contact with the floor. The bathroom is, oddly, seemingly recently renovated compared to the rest of the unit.

It was in a state of disrepair dirty found someones hairn my bed. It isn't advertised honestly as the photos are not current or relevant to its current condition. Sofa was absolutely filthy, bedroom door filthy., stairwell filthy drawers dirty . Swimming pool unavailable. My grandaughter said that it had a bad vibe. The property was just rundown and that includes gardens etc... outside of buildings were just like some one had been living there for 15 years ++ and not done any maintenance. What a rip off.
