It was very quiet.
Lyndon
Staff are really friendly and lovely. Love the powerful shower, comfy bed.
Perhaps the bathroom can do with a few more hooks to hang clothes.
We booked 2 rooms, but my kids room didn't get serviced for one of the 3 days. And coffee didn't get replenished. No big deal.
I had knee problems so going up and down the stairs was challenging at times but didn't realised that the rooms were on 1st floor when i booked. Perhaps informing customers of the 1st floor rooms might be helpful. Overall happy and will do business with you guys again. Thank you.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Park and trails right behind leading to Hanmer Forest Trails. Convenient to thermal pools and the motel provides separate towels. Free tennis court on site. Paint peeling above shower but they are in process of replacing the showers. Provided shampoo has unpleasant smell.

Fairly small room for the rate charged for a studio unit. No sink. Host gave us some free very nice venison which made up for other faults!

It was nice that they were happy to supply towels to borrow for the hot pools.
Unfortunately there was a set someone else’s dirty clothes left in the room.. it made me wonder how well it had been cleaned. As well as the shower was block while using it causing it to fill up. I checked the drain and it was full of hair
