Shortland Budget Accommodation
Staff were great. There is a kitchen there but I didn't use it. I ate in the evenings and was very good value. It was very good value for money and my room and bed was fine. It had a kettle in the room.

The Executive Inn
Room really clean, housekeeping staff do a great job. Pool lovely, well kept. Issue with renovations in room above us that nobody told us about it at check in, d/w reception, apologies made, compensation given, just not what we'd expect, especially given good service on numerous previous visits. ...
