Motel Oasis, Gisborne
The room smelled really bad, even opening the windows didn't help. It then got cold, so I put the heater on, the AC heater then stopped working. Housekeeping in the morning was very loud outside the room. They were lovely team though. I would never stay again and I wouldn't ever recommend this place. ...
