Very dirty accommodation, a lot of mould in the bathrooms, visible dirt, dust , cobwebs, stained pillow cases and tea towels. Had clearly only had a superficial surface clean, needs a thorough deep clean throughout. Rusty chairs and tables on the balconies, rusty shower caddy’s in the bathrooms Only 4 glasses in the kitchen, 2 of which had been from Hungry Jacks! Broken airer dumped in the garden1/2 consumed jar of mini marmalade in the welcome packHappy to stay in dated accommodation but we do expect it to be clean.Very similar comments in the visitor book so very poor that previous issues have not be addressed.

Taranaki Beach House

Great location though we were disappointed as the pictures on the website were not a true reflection of the place. It looked modern, fresh and clean in the pictures but it was quite old, carpets were dirty and outside areas also dirty. We couldn’t open the door in the 3rd bedroom to get fresh air.It felt like it all needed a fair bit of a freshen up and quite a few areas needed maintenance.
