This was a perfect little "half-way" stop-over place, for us...fairly close to Taupo. It was quiet. We watched YouTube via the TV screen and it was fine. We dined in Taupo, prior to heading down to our accommodation. The bed was comfy. We had everything we needed. Loved the garden night lights...coming in from the car...and the pavers (to step out of the car...on to.) 1 minute from the lake.
