The Backyard Inn

Pros: Room was warm and clean, nice heated pool to relax in, good communal areas and the cooking facilities were very useful, clean and well organized. Top marks to the staff for their help and ...

Cons: As with other comments here the place is a bit dated but I would not let that stop me from staying there.

Pros: Clean, comfortable, handy

Pros: Staff were marvellous & the facilities were great & our chalet was perfect. We will definitely stay there on our next trip to Rotorua

Pretty decent

Pros: My bed was super comfortable and the showering and toilet facilities were great, no waiting time, clean. I stayed in a dorm where there were four girls and one plug socket. Extension cable needed! I recommend staying in the top floor of the dorms as the floorboards are noisy. didn't bother me but woke others up. Wifi is temperamental so if you are a person who is addicted to their phones you may experience some stress. Is very basic but clean, tidy, safe and welcoming. I would recommend.

Cons: Not enough plug sockets in rooms and floor boards are noisy. also have to any for wifi which is unreliable. I didn't bother buying it again during my stay
