I felt unsafe when I pulled up at reception. The building was run down and looked awful. The units where I would have stayed looked ok from the outside I have to say but over the other side were some really run down units with rather off putting inhabitants. I went to another motel for the night.

The exterior of the buildings is very dated and off putting when you first arrive. The staff were friendly and allowed early check in. Rooms clean and beds comfy. The setting is lovely and peaceful.

When you arrive the reception building looks a bit run down. But the rooms are separate houses further away surrounded by nature and a little stream running in front. The rooms are very clean, new towels and bedsheets and the bathroom is modern and newly renovated. Also had a spa bath in a backroom. It's spacious and super quiet, apart from the singing birds. Highly recommend.

The room we had was actually pretty nice. I have read some mixed reviews but my 14 and 10 year old daughters and I found it fine for our 1 night stay in Taupo. It's further out from the town area but we had a car so wasn't too worried. The area itself did look a bit old and reception area run down but it was cheap and the shower was warm, bathroom clean, room itself was warm enough and beds fine. Would stay again if I had to.

To be completely honest I didn’t even enter the premises as it was pretty terrible and the property looked like it had been through a hurricane. It looked unsafe and dirty so I turned around and got accommodation elsewhere

Liked: Cleanliness
Basic but neatly presented room, clean enough. Location is nice if you like a quiet area, but still close enough/short drive to key areas like Huka Falls and Taupo town centre. Soundproofing is not the best though so expect to hear your neighbour moving about. The room was listed as having a hairdryer but this was not there upon check-in. Went to ask reception the next day but reception was unmanned, so I just skipped and air-dried… no biggie, just a small irk. Parking is very easy, right outside your room on a gravel area.
