Another complaint re Filthy Room at Waipuna Hotel & Conference Centre.
Professional Person with a Master’s in Public Health & years of experience in operating theatres has also been met with the same filthy conditions at Waipuna previously reported on Friday 17th September 2021.
1/ Dust on side- tables .

2/ Long black hair through the carpet as the earlier person had also experienced but blonde.

3/ Streams of ants heading towards a broken fridge & bait stations outside the room (not a good look for our Community owned Hotel).

4/ Rubbish only collected 3 times a week, so you are forced to sit in filth surround by ants.

5/ Used nappy on the outside of windowsill & a spitball on the ceiling (I’ll leave this up to the imagination).

6 / Appeared NOT to have been vacuumed behind curtains or under beds quoted for years.

7/ Maintenance man came to fix the window WITHOUT a N95 mask gloves or protective gear.

This is how we get cases of covid / delta in MIQ Facility’s.

8/ Issues raised with reception several times but was greeted with “blank incomprehension and evasiveness”

It is obvious from these Waipuna experiences (and I’m sure there are more we don’t know about) that the virus would be out of quarantine in milliseconds.

These are not isolated cases.

Seriously they wait for a probable or confirmed case of Covid 19 now Delta before carrying out “systematic cleaning and surface disinfection practices.

We don’t stand a chance of stamping this virus out anytime soon!!!

I now know why the person jumped out of the window at Waipuna earlier stay in MIQ as he was probably safer on the outside than on the inside.

GOOD MANAGEMENT STARTS & FINISHES AT THE TOP (heads need to roll).

I have been involved in Waipuna for at least the last 40years + and these are the first negative comments that I know of regarding Waipuna’s Management.

I’m sure all the MIQ facility’s are being paid by us the team of 5 million tax payers top dollar…..

WAIPUNA MANAGEMENT THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR A COMMUINTY OWNED ASSET!!!!

GOOD MANAGEMENT STARTS & FINISHES AT THE TOP (heads need to roll) ie the CE & Board members.

This should be front page of the NZ Herald!!!!

Two-week stay in dirty, bug infested MIQ room ‘unbelievable’
This is owned by us the community that live it the Mt Wellington Licensing Trust area.
I would like the Chief Executive Brent Robinson & the 6 elected board members (elected by us the community every 3 years ) to explain how this has been allowed to happen.

Here a few of the complaints.

1/ Dirt smeared on the telephone.

2/ Weeks of dust build- up in the grates of the fan and the back of the TV

3/ Food was awful most of the meals where inedible and arrived cold.

4/ Spiders in the shower and hole in the wall that ants trailed through into the bathroom.

5/ Room not vacuumed properly

Would you pay $3100.00 for this 2 week experience????

From what I read into this the Hotel is going to rack & ruin and will be worthless to us the community.

The CE & the 6 elected board members need to be held accountable as they are the caretakers to protect our biggest asset.

Thank goodness there is another election next year.

Please give some consideration to stand as a board member to protect our asset as clearly these people are NOT
