Cleanliness and the lack of amenities in the bathroom

The price

Stayed in June 2025

Staff are not friendly, we have to arrange heating and all even though they listed it in the facilities. They asked for 15$ for the heater as well.

Worth money

The bathroom wasn't very tidy and was always occupied.

Reasonable price, convenient area.

The toilet was either always occupied and not clean however, the worst bit of this stay was the lack of sound insulation. The only thing stopping our room from sharing with another was a piece of plywood.

The room we had was very big and the bed was comfortable.

How bad was the experience to book a room and just before check in received an email saying they do not have a room for me. Also contact booking.com in customer service for claim my money paid and no one answers my email. I lost my money and had a bad experience in a cheap place.

Perfect 👌

Dirty, cold with no sufficient heating. Was informed about $15 additional for heating on the day of check-in. Wasn't mentioned at the time of booking that there is no heating. This $15 heater wasn't even available so a small heater was given which was not enough. Room was cold with gaps in windows.

It was cheap.

Absolutely terrible experience – avoid this place! Stayed at this cheap guest house in New Lynn and regret every moment. Found a dead cockroach in my room – no cleanliness or hygiene maintained. The toilet was filthy, and the shower setup is horrible – you have to stand inside an old bathtub, which is disgusting. No proper bathroom facilities – no mirrors in the bathroom or bedroom. No heaters provided – the house was freezing cold. Zero customer service – they don’t respond to requests or show any concern for guest comfort. No basic amenities – you have to bring your own cleaning supplies, mirror, TV, and even toilet paper. Parking is a nightmare, especially when it rains – the whole area turns into mud, cars get stuck, and tyres get completely dirty. The place looks completely run-down and urgently needs refurbishment. I understand it's a budget property, but that’s no excuse for neglect and poor conditions. Just because they have a no-refund policy doesn’t mean they should make guests suffer. This guest house should not even be listed on booking platforms like Booking.com or Agoda – these sites need to do a proper quality check before allowing such properties. Biggest disappointment – I would never recommend this place to anyone. Stay away!

It's cheap okay but it's horrible

The whole house, including the room, common areas, bathroom etc. was dirty and has not been properly cleaned for some time. Walls in the room were stained and it smelled mouldy. The room was also really cold (luckily we had our own sleeping bags) and the curtains did not cover all the windows.

There was hot water in the shower and the gas stove worked fine.

There was no heater and it was too cold

It was comfortable

The house is very run down, which is a little deceiving by looking at the photos. The house is really old and gives a haunted feel.

Apart from the communication barriers This room was alot colder and couldn't get proper wi-fi signal from this room would far rather the rooms on the same side as the front door other wise it was ok

Still booked a cheap room for the night

Stayed in June 2025

Cheap accommodation facilities were definitely met woke up to the morning sun shining in room which was definitely welcomed as it was a lil cold overall enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this place for a cheap affordable and efficient place to stay

If you don’t have a car, you will be a little bit far from the train station or the bus station. If you like to walk it’s easy !

The space in the room !

I stayed an entire week in this guesthouse. The staff (especially the cleaning lady) was really unfriendly. There is a real lack of cleaning in this house, it smells humidity, there are holes in the walls, the window in my room wouldn't close, and finally, I also saw 2 mice, one in the kitchen and the other in the living room.

- The owner was reactive and understanding - The free parking

Stayed in May 2025

The house is very old. The key wasn't in the lockbox and we couldn't get into the house. We had booked a room with two beds, but at the last minute they switched us to a double bed. The mattress was worn out and sagged in the middle. The people at the lodging were very disrespectful, making noise at 10:30 p.m. The owner offered a refund for the room change, but at that point we couldn't go anywhere else. Yes, the place is cheap, but it's not worth saving money for that. I do not recommend it at all!

Didnt like it at all!
