Burwood Motel - Whanganui - I rate it: 4/10

Burwood Motel
Dublin St
Whanganui

People:
2x Adult
1x Child

Duration:
2 nights

Cost:
$300 NZD

Reason for booking:
Pool
Free wifi
Free Parking
Private Spa
Cooked Breakfast

Close to the city centre
Supermarkets some 500 mtrs away to Countdown, P&S and New World
Bottle stores handy
Fast food outlets handy

First impressions on arrival:
Quaint, but a bit dated
Front desk was helpful

What I liked:
Beds were comfortable with fresh linen daily
Plenty of space in the lounge (doubling as a single bedroom)
It was a quiet complex
Parking at the unit door

What didn't work:
The Private Spa was broken
The Public Sauna was broken
The hotel kitchen was not operational, so we couldn't order breakfasts
The ladder into the pool was loose and had broken rungs
The air conditioner in the room did not produce ANY cold air

Light fittings were loose
Window latches were a bit 'iffy'

Would I stay there again ?
Most likely not
If you just need a bed, then its good.... but if you're expecting anything else, then look elsewhere.
