Lakefront Lodge Taupo
The room was clean besides the sock under the double bed.And it was a very nice and clean bathroom My fam all think they just chucked a bed in by the bathroom that made the door not open properly but it was still a very nice place

Twin Peaks Lakeside Inn
Clean room, nice staff, good facilities. The only thing is you can only take stairs to the second floor, so if you have big luggage, it will be a bit inconvenient.
