Everything was adequate and fairly clean. I suppose you get what you pay for and this place was very cheap.

Back yard Inn stay
n reference to the amount that was paid for the accommodation the rooms were ok, the budget rooms contain two beds and an table and chair, there is heating but no cooling. You can open the window but there is not much of a breeze and no fans in the room. The rooms get quite warm, the female communal showers had no locks on the door. the pillows were low quality and there were no extra pillows available in the room and no towels were provided in the room, and it does not mention on the website that for these room s you will be required to provide your own towel. I will think twice before booking this place again if I was travelling through Rotorua.

Bra, billigt och centralt!
Bra hotell med ett bra läge i Rotorua! Poolen är fräsch. Finns även biljard och pingisbord, stort fint kök man kan låna. Det dåliga med hotellet är att det är väldigt lyhört och finns inte så många uttag i rummet så en powerbank kan vara bra att ha med sig.
