We were received by an old New Zealand lady who was very unfriendly. She must have been dissatisfied with the previous Chinese guests. The old lady’s English pronunciation was not accurate. She pronounced milk as mulk. We didn’t understand it at all. She slapped the table at us. , they all say that New Zealand’s service industry is very good, but I have personally experienced that it is much worse than China’s service industry.

The room was clean and tidy, there was everything we needed in the room. Only downside was there were roadworks directly in front of the room at the time of the visit (they stopped by 8.00pm so didn't affect us too much)and due to general traffic noise it would have been hard to sleep in if we hadn't needed to get up early.

We were near the beach and able to walk to the botanical gardens. We stopped to eat on the way back. Room was spotlessly clean. Bed was very comfortable. Good facilities.

Beautiful property. Good and adequate amenities. Very comfortable except for drainage in the shower. Feel as though you’re wading in water because of slow drainage.

Very run down property. The Lady was very snappy. Was clean and beds were comfy.
Right on the highway and limited parking.
