The property has potential, is not too far from Lake or other things to do.Has lots of space that can be improved. Just seems a bit neglected, but the room did what we needed,we spent a weekend and it was ok.

I like that we had adequate shelter and basic facilities but it's a motel, it is NOT a hotel! It should have at least a shared laundry room and either shared cooking facilities or a cooktop (plugin is fine). This place had a shared, unsheltered, barely clean BBQ outside! This was a cheap and nasty little establishment which boasted of a restaurant, hot pools, and used dodgy advertising pictures to make it look like a top notch establishment! BTW, it was only AFTER we had confirmed our booking that they said the restaurant and hot pools were not a going concern! I wouldn't recommend this place.

Be aware that check in is not until 3pm. There is no staff ever in reception and you need to phone when arrived. We did not have phone access so this was a problem. Also be aware the rooms share a wall and the noise at night is terrible. There are no phones in the rooms so we were unable to phone anyone to advise of the party happening next door to us all night. Property is located out of town and not close to any restaurants etc which is also inconvenient.

I found this property cheaper than the others in the area and I was looking for a short term stay so I chose this. It was in line with my expectations for the price offered. My only suggestion would be that the rooms (especially the linen) could be a little cleaner. Otherwise, I was reasonably satisfied.

This place is not as advertised and was so bad we did not stay there. After seeing the room we immediately returned the key. I will be requesting a refund it was so poor. Room was old, unclean and musty smell. Also very few furnishings so very basic compared to other options in Taupo.

Bed was clean and comfortable. The interior of the unit looked like it could do with a lick of paint and a general upgrade. The whole place looked dilapidated and run down, especially the reception and exterior of the buildings. The resort is in a lovely peaceful location and had much potential - but needs a serious upgrade!!!!

An amazing hidden gem
From 1st appearance you may think you arrived in 19th century wild west but step in the room and its comfort city. Looks and feels like its newly refurbished. Has pool, 5 min walk to free hot pool, smart tv, polite owners and tranquil grounds. As a hotels.com gold member, this is well worth a stay. True hidden gem.

Pet friendly
The place is fairly run down, but I understand new owners have just taken over. The reason we booked here is because it is pet friendly. A lot of motels in Taupo are not. We were only there to sleep, so on the whole the experience was not too bad. The place does some potential to be tidied up.
