When we booked this place in December, all we could get was a twin bunk room, so we asked that if they had any cancellations, could we get a double room. By the time we arrived in January that had happened. We had a lovely little room, one of 3, with a little porch for socialising. The bed was comfortable, and the room was spotlessly clean with a cabinet, an easy chair and hooks on the wall for clothes. The only drawback was that the bathroom facilities were in another building - not a biggie. There was a very friendly cat and some delightful cooing pigeons, and the person in charge was welcoming and capable. The Reception sign had been rather overgrown, so we did spend a bit of time telling new people where to find it.

Very friendly staff and a wonderful location that feels tucked away in a corner of the bush even though it's still technically in the city! Shared facilities and the bungalow I stayed in were what you'd expect for the price point - a bit older and maybe a bit musty, but otherwise quaint and comfortable.

Arrived to find our accommodation that we had booked via a booking site in April and confirmed and paid for had been cancelled by manager and rebooked so no where to stay for the 7 of us reckons he sent an email wanting confirmation earlier in month no email received and booking site had confirmed booking anyway his solution was to drive and hour and a half back to Hawera will never recommend this place ever to anyone very poor didn't care that there was nowhere to stay because of concert I imagine others have had same problems with this outfit
