Property condition
- Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Linen smelled musty/unclean and had stains on it. Pillows stank of stale body oils. We paid upfront, but didn't stay... It was a last resort as all hotels/motels had been booked out for Labour Party conference. Thankfully someone took pity on us at an amazing B & B half an hour out of Whanganu; after much searching. This motel/caravan park was the worst I've experienced; even taking some 3rd world countries into account.

- Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
There appeared to be a lot of gang members standing around drinking. The police were in attendance. Not suitable for families.
