I was upgraded, as there were several family members booked in, and we were given units next door to each other. While old and worn in places, my unit was sootless. The bedsheets were lovely quality, as were the feather blankets and made for a great sleep. Only noise - bird song. Very reasonable price, super handy loxation, great swimming pool. I definitely recommend Touchwood Inn to those who want value for money

The place is very dated, which is okay but really needed a good clean of everything, walls, ceilings, skirting boards. Room slept 5 people but not enough cutlery or crockery for 5 people, had to share glasses and plates. Really need to put a bit of effort into the place

Kitchen had basic equipment,initially no dishcloth or teatowel which were supplied on request,several times only dishclothes supplied but no teatowels.Freezer compartment of fridge was iced up leaving little space to use. No space to safely move around main bed without banging into wooden corner of bed. Curtains missing hooks . Stairs and deck requires wash down as very dusty.As was called an "Apartment" expected a better standard.

Good location for a motor camp in Auckland. Has the basics. Shower pressure and Wifi both essentially non-existent in our unit. Pool would have been great in summer.
