Despite the reception being advertised as open until 9:30pm we had to go to another motel down the road to get our key. The mold in the bathroom was not pervasive but enough to trigger my wife's allergy. The wifi is useless. I couldn't connect at all at first as they had emailed me the wrong password. I couldn't connect to youtube so I measured the speed at 4.3Mb/s download and 0.48 upload. Glasses had lip marks. The bed was very uncomfortable. At 11:00pm there were only two other cars in the complex and no lights on so I wonder why we were given the worst room right beside a busy, noisy road.

Good location, the unit itself was alright but the furnishings (other than the beds) we so old, dated and mostly badly damaged. There was one 2 seater leather couch for 5 people and the seat of this was literally coming off and exposing the stuffing under it. No plug to wash the dishes nor dishcloth so we could wipe the benches/table and there was a very funky smell the whole time. Also turned up at the lodge and go to reception to find I then had to drive down the road to a different hotel to check in and get my key, would be great if this was advised prior to the check in date. The service from the man at the counter was subpar, the ladies were kind and lovely.

No Love given here. To property or guests. No apology from manager about poor communication re checkin. Towels missing. No plug in kitchen so couldn’t wash dishes. Even cutlery missing. Absolutely no care being shown to property upkeep. Embarrassing if this is what our overseas tourists experience. Yuk

Had to go to another hotel to check in. Room was very dirty especially in the kitchen on shelves and in cupboards. Toilet was broken, was trying to ring reception but kept getting hung up on. Went to separate hotel to speak to receptionist, they got someone in to fix toilet as there were no other rooms Available for our sized group. There was only one tiny fan heater for the whole 2bedroom place and no extra blankets. No flannels and not enough towels for everyone.

The location on a busy road made for a noisy poor night's sleep, the lights from the street made it through the curtains also contributing to poor sleep. Clearly not much use of the motel - room was musty. It was clean however and good parking. Like many Wellington motels was pretty tired in terms of decor, check in and out was annoying - no one on site, had to another motel - and call to get a number for the lock box to get my key. There seemed to be a lot of random people/cars at the motel not associated with people staying there which made me feel (single woman) not particularly safe. Maybe it's being used for emergency accommodation as well? It was hard to tell.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The service when I went to check in, although I was early, the reception was locked, this was at 1 p.m., and when the door was opened, the cooking smell was unbearable. The person was talking on the phone all the time while serving me. The room itself was clean enough, and the sheets, towels etc were laundered, but there were attempted repairs done to the unit, and not finished, the furniture was damaged, mirror in the bathroom someone had engraved an X from corner to corner. Mould growing on the ceiling in the bathroom. The main bed had no spring support, so it felt like you were sleeping in a hole.
