What a hidden gem!! Highly recommend this place. Somewhere I haven’t heard of and that I’ve come apon before I found this whilst I was looking to stay close to Hampton downs. The room was lovely and warm when we arrived, comfortable bed, luxury underfloor heating and sky tv and a coffee pod machine as a bonus! The icing on the cake was the affordable nights stay! Happy couple 😍

Our room had the air conditioning unit outside the window which kept coming on and off all night. I had asked if the room was quiet!! I was unable to open the window as the room felt airless due to the noise from the unit which was even louder when the window was open.

Accommodation was adequate. Service was ok, feels like they were either in training or a wee bit lazy/distracted. Room service request was disappointing- restaurant staff need further training! Restaurant food, sub average - very disappointed.

Disappointed stay
Room was clean but smelt musty. The room had a window behind the bed and that combined with the dark cream walls made the room feel soulless. All in all for the price of the room it was ok but the meal in the attached restaurant wasn’t. I had a tikka chicken burger with chips however the chicken was at best warm and the chips were not all hot. On the basis that I had a long flight booked for the next day I ended up eating some of the chips and some of the bun.

The facility was clean and i had a relaxing experience. Our room was serviced on a daily basis. The shops and food outlet were in walking distance. The hotel's restaurant makes one of the best burgers I have ever had. Will definitely stay there next time. The only reason why i marked the staff down was because i did not like how a young Pakeha receptionist called us as we were walking to our car if we paid our room when that should of been handed over by her previous colleague. She was also the same person that opened our door when we were sleeping on our first day for no good reason at all. It made me wonder whether she does this to all the other customers as well and not just us. Our experience was quite positive and enjoyable despite that poor treatment.
