The place needed a deep cleaning. There was dead insects, hair in drawer with drinkware, bath floir looked unswept or cleaned, hair on floor. Walking barefoot left soles of feet dirty. We mopped ourselves. Washed dishes before using. Found somewhere else to stay after first night.

There are basically three restaurants: The one in The Park Hotel Ruapehu, one pub across the street (great place), and the restaurant inside the train station a 10 minute walk west.
