Room was ok, but you could hear everything form the upstairs room and the bedroom door didn't shut, also the bed in the lounge was pretty average.

Carole, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Check in was pleasant & quick, Rachel was nice. Location was convenient with shops nearby. Pool is deep & enough for a dip, spa was nice. The only downside was little things in the room like the couch smelt like mims & a rip in the curtain. Otherwise size and other facilities like fridge, stove, microwave was bliss.

Great visit to Tauranga!

The staff was super friendly and helpful with all my requests. Our room was tidy, well stocked, and quiet. We did have a few issues that we reported, but the staff were keen to deal with them ASAP. We had a room right in the corner so it was a little dark/hard to air out but it was still a really good room! I loved the space in the shower.
Alisha, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I liked that there was sky, an ac, a pool and a spa, nice shower, and blinds. Was nice and clean. The bed was a little firm, the curtains were long sitting on the ground easily can be stood on and there was a rip in the curtain unsure if that was reported yet. When we arrived after my arrival time my room wasnt ready yet. Only 1 chair with the dinning table. Not sure if the price i paid for this room was worth it.
