The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The amenities were spacious and well stocked in the kitchen areas. We were not so keen on the traffic noise although ear plugs were provided
1. The bathroom was shared, but it wasn’t clear from the room description
2. Internet speed was bad - we were getting less than 1Mbps in the room.
3. The shared space had a weird smell of smelly Asian food
4. We were given a room downstairs, and the guests upstairs made a lot of noise, making it impossible to sleep.
Overall, this was my worst stay in New Zealand.
The check-in wasn’t great, with the staff member being pretty uninterested in even acknowledging us at the desk when we were the only customers there. But otherwise it was good.
The rooms are small, but tidy, warm and comfortable. The in-house cafe was great for breakfast in the morning and the EV charging available in the car park was awesome. I think it’s rated at 7kw, but topped out at about 4kw.
The staff serving at the cafe and at check out were really friendly, it was just the check-in that wasn’t good.
It having a Sauna and a Spa was perfect, its why i booked it as i wanted to use the soa after my 32km run. The staff were very friendly and helpful. If i do this race again next i will be staying at the lodge again.
I stayed in both the backpackers unit and also the queen bed one with a kitchen. It was perfect for what i needed, location is really close to major sites in the area, clean, comfortable and I would stay again
