Clean and comfy, unfortunately there was no restaurant as stated online, no one knew about our booking, no code for the front door, and WiFi didn’t work.

No one there when I arrived no instructions no wifi as was advertising stated no food available there or in the area after 5pm contrary to what advertising and the manager said when I spoke to her I had to drive 30 minutes back to Te Kuiti to get dinner cafe didn’t open the next morning so I had to find someone to pay before I left ( I had been given that option when I booked) she also tried to charge $ 5 more then advertising

For the price, a comfortable place to stay, with friendly staff (this is NZ, remember!). Think of it like a youth hostel, just with private rooms. The rooms and bathroom are a bit run down, so if you're expecting something really slick, be warned! But there's a kitchen with fridges etc, not something you'd get in a hotel. I would stay here again, but partly because there's not really anywhere else in this price range near the forest I wanted to visit!

Comfy room
This was an impromptu stay as were currently hiking through New Zealand. We booked a room, and wanted to check in a day earlier - this was not a problem. Check in was simple and our host very helpful. My first impressions were very clean, new carpets and comfortable room. Really felt it was value for money and offers an ideal location for the timber trail. The room had everything we required and showers had shower gel for us also. Ideal base
