Mystery Creek Motel

Covenient and cleannnnn 🙂

Safe and quiet

1. Barely a 'hello' when I checked into this property. Basically told here is the key, you are in this room, down the far end. No welcome, just checked my name against the booking and that was it. 2. Units were not numbered. 3. No outside lighting. Had to ask to have it turned on, so I could go to the car outside. 4. Light switch popping out from wall. 5. Neighbouring smoke alarm was intermitenttly beeping. I did not ring reception as I had already rung them about the lighting. So, located the source of the alarm and disabled it myself. 6. Towels were well past their use by date and had threads coming off them. Tatty. 7. Bed was comfy, sheets were clean. A very disappointing stay. It felt like the owners were not really into providing any kind of experience or pleasant stay except for taking my money. No hospitality at all.

Stayed for 6 nights. Basic accommodation, with fridge, jug and tea, a shared dining area I didn't use. Very clean, bed comfortable, quiet for a restful nights sleep. Close to airport, Ohaupo and 15 minutes to Te Awamutu. Owners pleasant and helpful. I would stay again.

Facilities were fine but the staff have no thought to customer service. Shared kitchens usually work well but in this instance food was purchased and stored was thrown out! Got back late evening to have dinner gone! No inquiry was made as a paying customer and no refund was given. Warning to other guests, don't leave food in shared Kitchen.
