Aotea Lodge

Management are rude.nRooms tidy but nothing flash.nWe weren't allowed to use the pool.nCleaners cleaned 2 times in the week were there.nWhen the cleaners did come to clean they just walk in, no knock to let us know they were coming in.nVery questionable standard of cleanliness.nWe witnessed the cleaner, using our dirty bed sheet to wipe down the kitchen bench in the room we had.nToilet wasn't cleaned by the cleaners at all in the time we stayed there.nNo toilet paper, when I asked for some the female manager was so rude.nMale manager sneaks around going by all the rooms at night, looked as if he was spying on his customers.nAfter speaking the managers regarding the cleaning we witnessed, they became extremely angry at us and threatened to call the police on us.nI will NOT be recommending the motel to anyone.nWell and truly over priced, and NO they DO NOT accept campervans, even though there is a big red sign advertising campervan sites.

A little old but clean. The bathroom was fine with a spa bath. We had a room on the bottom floor and we heard people walking above us and them talking. There was no airconditioning so the people upstairs kept their windows open all night so it was probably noisier than usual. We could hear the water through the pipes when upstairs used the water.

I would like to say a huge thank you to the owners and cleaners but most of all Sweeny & fams for providing us with a safe comfortable and relaxing environment during our stay. We had been shifted around to a few places but nothing was as peaceful and stress free as our stay at Aotea Lodge. Everyone from the owners to the cleaners were so good to us it truly was an awesome experience. I appreciate all you have done for my family and the community. Thank you and God Bless

Was just here for STMS course. Nice location, good views out over the harbour. The food the first day was spectacular, shepherd or cottage pie not sure. Second day was some sort of vegetable concoction which was great until I realised the mushroom layer on top. Not a dietary requirement, just me being picky. All in all a great two days. Thanks

Would give 0 stars if possible. Dirty room, filthy carpet. Not just stained but with crusted food stuck all through it. Food smeared on one of the duvet covers so linen clearly hadn't been washed in between guests. Very disappointing service. Would not recommend.
