A fantastic stay

The Quest in Whangarei is fresh and new and offers a very great option for a business stay. The boys on reception are really nice and always happy to go the extra step to make the stay comfortable.

Great location in the centre of Whangarei. Spotless room, comfortable bed, good shower, a well equipped kitchen and friendly hosts on reception. Now the bad - this hotel lists a "Safe" in the "More" section of the information for each room type - there was no safe in my room - the hotel should really remove the "Safe" from the Expedia room descriptions (I know there is a safe at reception, but that is already listed in the "Property amenities" section of the listing, and it should not be included in the room descriptions if it is not in the room - reception is not open 24 hours anyway). On my final morning I was woken at 8:15am by a cleaner vacuuming in the next room - the soundproofing around the connecting door is poor!

The room was warm and comfortable, and in a great location. Unfortunately there was loud music from a bar or club next door that played until the small hours of the morning that kept both rooms in our party awake. The people staying above us were also very loud.

The staff were very nice and the location was great, but the room was not cleaned properly, we found food in the freezer and very dirty dish in the oven. There was only one clean over a 3 night stay and all they did was make the bed poorly and change the towels.
