Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Rooms were outdated, outside seating area and old golf area was closed and appeared to be torn up. The lights kept flickering on and off, and the hot water went from lukewarm to scalding during showers. Some of the hallways and rooms smelled lightly of cigarettes. The pictures of the property on the site are outdated or false. There is no direct view of the river, and the pictures look like they may have been from 30 or more years ago. On a positive note, the bed was comfortable and clean.

The moment I walked into the reception area I knew I had booked the wrong place to stay. The smell of damp mould in the reception area was overpowering. Outside the gardens were full of weeds, rusted guttering leaked water stains down the walls and there were growing plants and weeds in blocked gutters. Rotten timbers in the structure were visible and the whole exterior was very run down. The halls to the rooms were as bad, a very tired carpet and mould smell. The only thing that stopped me giving a terrible rating was the room was clean smelling and adequate for its purpose. It was very dated, the shower temperature was very difficult to control (one second hot, next too cold) and the hot water temperature was set at a dangerously high level that risked scaling guests. There was visible black mould creeping through gaps in the bathroom lining and paint blistering from moisture and mould. I bring bird watching clients from all over the world to stay in the South Island and I will never book this facility again.

No control of shower temp, cold one minute, scalding hot the next! Smelly old bath anti slip. Door hard to open/close. No separate fan from light switch ( loud fan). No safe. Door to rooms always open, broken yale on room door, some lights not working. Would not stay again.

Property is very dated, dripping taps, hot water fluctuate so much that it burns you mid shower, with two kids this was quite dangerous. Laundry facilities were painful at best, one washing machine out of order, the other did not spin clothes. Dryers did not work properly, management had not put signs on the dryers but seemed to be already aware of this problem when we enquires about the issue. Management did refund our money but had to air dry all clothes. Unfortunately this property is in need of serious maintenance and upkeep. It was not worth the money we paid.

Just like other comments suggest. The premises are a bit dated but the room and bathroom were clean and everything was working. I did not have any problems sleeping. Distance from the city centre is an issue and the nearest cafe is 500m away. Since there is no restaurant/breakfast in-house, this can be an inconvenience. All in all it is okay for the price, but if you plan on staying here, make sure you have a car.
