Pros:

It was very clean

Cons:

The room was much smaller than we thought and was more dated which would be fine if the decor wasnt so odd , there was a black lockable cage in the room and at night you could hear next door very clearly and outside. But was clean

Great Taupo location
Pros:

We have stayed here often. It’s close to town and the log cabin type interiors are timeless.

Cons:

The rooms are small and decor a little tired so don’t expect 5 star experience, but if small rooms don’t worry you, this is a good option.
