DO NOT STAY HERE

They advertize that the property is airconditioned but all they have is a unit on 1st floor. There is NO airconditioning in upsatirs where bedrooms are and it was VERY warm. We ending up sleeping on the couch. Also, be aware that this townhouse is 2 blocks away from a hot spring and the FOUL sulfur odor permeates into the home. Terrible place for the price!

Everything we needed

Well located for a great Rotorua stopover this comfortable townhouse had everything a small family would need to be self-contained. Upstairs was pretty warm for sleeping but fans helped.
