We booked in advance; recieved confirmation of of a 2 bedroom unit; only to find the secind bedroom was bunk bed in the living area. The bedding was stained/dirty. Insect and used soap in the bathroom. Unprofessional, unbending, uneducated, unpleasent people in charge. So awful... fortunately Pahia's charms where fantastic & I would total reccomend the Aloha motel More

We booked this place well ahead of time. At first we didn’t get any confirmation and after a few email attempts I decided to call them (from Australia) and a woman answered the phone and gave me a confirmation number, telling me that their Internet is not good. I believed her... It seems the place went down and was “Managed”... More

I was not happy with this hotel and when I complained I was sent a really offensive email back. They don't care about customer satisfaction and if I were you I would pay the extra money to stay somewhere nice. If you are not happy here you either like it or lump it. the hotel room stinks, the fridge is... More

We didn't stay here in the end. We arrived around 2:30pm, rang the bell, walked around the office, tooted the horn and finally someone came out... Totally drunk and they had been relaxing in the pool! We got our key and drove round the corner to our cottage to find our neighbours getting ready for a party and all wearing... More

While our room was perfectly fine there were many things that could be improved. Reading the hotels information booklet just highlights even more that they don't have the time. We are not interested that you have teenage kids, it's no excuse and as a guest I simply are don't care. For example we bought food to use on the gas... More

We stayed here during a recent visit to Paihia. When researching hotels, I was surprised at the high cost of many other hotels in the areaa. The Comfort Inn was reasonably priced in comparision to other places. Given the low price, I wasn't expecting luxury. The rooms and bathrooms were spacious and clean yet basic. The hotel location was about... More

It had a living room with a couch and two wicker chairs; a bedroom with one double and one single bed plus a wardrobe and a very small table with a drawer; a bathroom with a tub/shower combination, a toilet, and a sink; a dining area with a table...
