6/10
A good place to stay in Otorohanga near to Waitomo Caves. We stayed as a family and the two bedroom unit is quite functional, with enough towels and kitchen utensils provided for 5 people (bed #5 is in the living area, with 2 separate bedrooms). It's a beautiful semi-rural outlook at the back, with nice views, though steep - right on the side of a hill. Despite being on a highway it was beautifully quiet at night, and dark, with minimal light coming in which was a plus.
Staff are friendly and helpful. But there are some shortcomings. The property is quite old - the key looks positively ancient, and it didn't feel all that secure. Sheets on the beds are too small and keep coming off - had to leave the heating on at night (which worked OK). The worst bit was the shower though - the floor is so slippery it's actually a hazard, several of us nearly slipped over in there. This definitely needs some attention.
