Top floor attic room. When warm (rare in Dunedin) no air con except a window. Very, very steep stairs up to the bedroom with slippery carpet on them. Shower over spa bath was a pain getting into and out of.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our family room was ideal with two single beds on the mezzanine level giving space and privacy. The property was in process of renovating and upgrading rooms one by one but ours was more than adequate and the kitchen facility and breakfast bar meant we didn’t have to balance plates on our laps!. The location was ideal with our granddaughter just a 5 minute walk away, and we explored the city on foot. Driving further afield was easy too. The staff were very welcoming and everything was very clean.
