Very responsive via phone contact. The phone number provided to me was incorrect and connected yo a different motel in Taupo which was weird. The lock box was very sticky and difficult to open, Ax was the entry door. Which needs a fix. The cooking equipment was very limited and could do with a smaller saucepan in the studio unit as the current size is enormous for cooking a 1-2 person meal. These were setbacks but notxa deterrent and I would stay again. Maybe better bathroom extras would be good like providing some shower girl and shampoo.
