Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

In need of some TLC

Arrived at 5pm to a note for check-in and never saw any staff at all. The room was basic but tired and in need of updating. There was a musty smell overpowered by a sweet perfume smell. Bedding and towels clean. Good hot shower. Two cups but only one drinking glass and no teaspoons. ‘Fridge noisy and had to turn off. Could hear shower in neighbouring room. No bedside lights meant getting out of bed to put light on/off. The light outside of bedroom window was bright and on all night. Quiet overnight. Overall if you want a cheap bed for the night it’s ok but don’t expect much.

Would not recommend booking this property if you are planning on traversing hooker valley track as instead of 27km away from this property as stated on their website it is a 6 hr drive as you need to go around the mountain. Property does not take the phone and neither answers emails.

Jan, sammamish

I needed a heart stent put in and management would not let me try another date. Expedia tried to help and could not. I just needed a few days. I am here in NZ now and out of 14 air bnbs and motels and hotels this was the only place that refused to help me.

If I could give zero stars I would. Bedding stained & smelled dirty & unwashed. Shower inexplicably ran scalding hot then icy cold. Paper thin walls where you can hear E.V.E.R.T.H.I.N.G. You get what you pay for and this is a lesson learned for us. A definite never again.
