Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was very clean and with separate bedroom and separate bed in lounge was perfect for 2 women travelling together. I had to reposition the standard lamp so I could read in bed and perhaps a wall light over the lounge bed would be a good idea. No small mixing bowl in kitchen and had to whisk 3 eggs in a dessert bowl for scrambled eggs. Very quiet location. Not within walking distance of the main centre, but we knew that.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was clean and tidy. Had a King size bed but this was a bit lumpy and felt it was sloping downhill. There seemed to be very little noise insulation as we were disturbed by noise from surrounding rooms. The people were not particularly noisy, but the construction materials were not noise absorbing which meant our peaceful weekend wasn't so peaceful.

If you are going to stay in Rotorua just spend the money and get something nice. Need to hire a new cleaner, room was barely clean and had stains on the toilet seat, the beds were horrible and hard, sheets were stained. We had an internal door to another room so it felt very unsafe. Very noisy, you can hear everything going on in the other rooms, there was banging and yelling at 2am which kept me up. Did not feel comfortable staying here at all.
