I didn't like anything about the property - there was no room to put a suitcase or hang clothes - the plastic kettle tainted the water so that tea and or coffee tasted revolting - and when you opened the bathroom door the musty smell was most unpleasant.

The room was nice, but unfortunately there was a loud noise directly outside it. It seems like it was the air conditioning unit that keep timing all night and interrupting us sleep for this reason I’ve got such a low review.

Small room for two but perfect for me on my own. Great location and accommodation was great for the money. Easy walk into CBD and great eateries.Only down side was the process to exit out of reception hours: the area with the lift is locked off outside office hours and with the lift inaccessible I had to drag my heavy case down a couple of flights of stairs by myself….not ideal for an older, solo woman without someone to help with bags.

Fairly noisey at 7am when trying to still sleep. Had arranged a late checkout but so many were checking out early & had no consideration for others still sleeping. Our room was tiny but comfy bed & pillows which usually aren’t the case & great views from elevated restaurant. Neat place overall & very affordable.

Good little place to stay if you are in Taupo. I made the mistake of booking a bunk room but it was still fine. Quite small rooms but I was only there for a night and on my own so it was fine.
