Clean lodge, easy parking, basic kitchen but shared kitchen available next to lodge. We chose to make breakfast and packed lunches and the ate out in the evening. Intermittent WiFi but acceptable. Nice and warm and convenient location for a couple of nights. Quiet location close to the main Street, Cook and Saddle and Betty Jackson’s excellent for evening meal with teens. Added bonus was the glow worm tour from the lodge, very enjoyable.

Not quite what we expected from photos. Room was fine, but dated. Fireplace did not work. Cobwebs present throughout. We were expected to make our own breakfast and ensure all dishes were cleaned and put away or a cleaning charge would be placed on our account. That seemed odd to us and this was the only property that required this during our 3 weeks in New Zealand. We did appreciate the free glow worm tour and the location of the property.

The apartment was just ok and not terribly clean. Probably better options in Franz Josey with the same access to the attractions around the glacier. Fox glacier was great for walking and sight seeing. would just stay elsewhere if I visit again.

Good service and ammenities. Skylight in the second bedroom made it difficult to sleep as there wasn’t a blind. Pillows were plentiful but all were the same size and quite big, we prefer a flat pillow so didn’t have a great sleep.

Room was clean. Bedding a bit uncomfortable. Found it hard to get warm. Had to turn airconditioner off as it blew its stream of air right onto bed. Generally a bit dated. Continental breakfast fine, but note that said if we did not clean up sufficiently we would be charged, did not go down well.

I think it's a nice enough place. It seemed more primitive with less heat. Combination motel and motorhome place. If it had been rated at an eight out of 10 I probably would have given it a higher rating.
