Very friendly staff, rooms well maintained and clean
Great place to stay. It was well located, comfortable and the incredibly nice people at reception gave us great advice for both our stay and our onwards journey. I am so glad we stayed here!
A warm welcome and a comfortable stay in a beautiful South Island location. Lots to see and do nearby. Really appreciated the tip to go visit the Glowworm along the Terrace Walk located near to the town centre!
We could easily walk to all the shops and dining areas nearby and even see the top of Franz Joseph glacier. Just breathtaking !
It was a very cozy, comfortable stay !
The unit was clean, in good condition, and the bed was comfortable. Instant coffee, teabags, sweeteners, and milk were available in the room along with an electric kettle. Check in and out was simple and quick, staff were friendly and helpful. We would stay here again.
