Horrible room.
Nothing like the photos we saw on hotel.com
The photos on Hotels.com show nice bedding and furnishings 
Very dated, shabby furniture 
Poor the price of the room we expected way better.
Only been here half an hour and can't wait to leave!Paid for upstairs room with view. 
Spoke to person on reception and they were apologetic. Couldn't move us to a different room as it's a busy weekend. 
Said all the rooms are the same but they are not...we had a look along the row. 
Avoid room 822!
First three photos are actual room.
Last photo is Website booking photo

What you see on the website is not what you get!

A dreadful experience! We were given a room which was contrary to our booking. When I complained and asked for what we had paid for, I was abused, shouted at and told to get off the property. The male staff member involved was aggressive and threatening (had possibly been drinking) and left us no choice. As older women 69 years and 70 years we were left in a strange city at night with nowhere to go while the receptionist and the aggressor simply stood and grinned at us as we drove out. We ended up at the Police station and were assisted to find available accommodation. However, we were very shaken by the incident at Twin Peaks, not to mention the fact that they refused to refund our money which had been pre-paid.

GUEST BEWARE

Stayed here several times already this year and it is a great place. Great staff, great views, handy to town and always very clean and tidy and well equipped. I have now stayed in 5 different units and all were well presented. Much better than the 3 star they advertise.

Great experience

The motel was quiet and clean but basic and minimal.
No towel rails and nowhere to put anything in the bathroom apart from the floor.
Shower was slippery and dangerous for 70+ age group. 
The bed was comfortable. 
The restaurant was excellent.

Warning.  Do not stay here.   Dirty smelly.  Carpets stained power points broken lamp falling apart.  Ac don’t work.  Tap in handbasin broken.  Spa bath sounded appealing but it’s not.  Microwave was older than me.  Windows dirty and covered in marks.   I will def not go back.

Warning!!!!!

This is a clean, well equipped, refurbished unit which is well located on the waterfront about 10 minutes easy walk to Taupo Central and all amenities. The receptionist was friendly and helpful. Between Christmas and new year this was a moderately priced unit and in all regards for us good value. 

Good value

The rooms are tired and dated and are in desperate need of a makeover! While the bed was comfortable and the check-in staff were lovely, this place is not worth what they're charging. The lake views are nice from most of the rooms, though the garden out the front is also in desperate need of attention. Wouldn't stay here again! 

A Very Average Stay

Unfortunately the pictures are a poor representation of what the actual accomodation is like. The floor was dirty, stained and desperately needed a vacuum (which meant I couldn’t let my infant crawl on the ground and I didn’t want to walk barefoot in the room or bathroom). The door handles were sticky (yuk!) as was the kitchen utensils and cutlery. The wifi was basically nonexistent! Room was covered in cobwebs, spiders and mozzies. The walls had paint missing and markings all over it. Honestly the place needs an entire renovation (it was not good value for money) and I didn’t feel safe going out in the car park at night. Not a good place for families! Do not recommend!!!

Avoid! Do not recommend!

This place needs a good makeover. Soon as we arrived I noticed the electric heater was missing the side panels which had exposed cables where my 2 year old would have died if he touched them. Had to locate the switchboard and turn the circuit breaker off. Lights in kitchen didn’t even go. Bathroom fan sounded like it was going to take off to space, shower door didn’t close so every time you had a shower you flooded the bathroom. No room service just had a bag dumped at our door with towels in it. The whole room smelt like a butchery. Would never stay here again. Unsure how they justify the price on their rooms. Only place side was it’s an easy walk to town!.

Room was something out of a horror movie

Im never staying at this motel again with prostitutes in there. Weird men going in and out all hours of the day and night. Not safe for kids. Disgusting seeing perverts coming and going and grunting noises at all hours!!
