The room was satisfactory - clean and large enough if a little low budget in style. Tea,coffee and milk were provided . There is parking right outside the room. The location is very good just a few minutes stroll to the beautiful lake and 10 minutes to the town centre

Stayed at this property with family for 1 night on our way to Milford Sound. It is a good motel with all basic facilities and amenities. There is a small kitchenette as well which was very helpful. Overall, a nice experience. Just one point: The heating in the room was through one air-con/heater only. This wasn't sufficient for the Autumn cold and the size of the room. There was no bed heating either. Hence, it was a bit cold in there!

Very good accomodation. Clean and convineint. We enjoyed having a kitchen to cook with the basics provided and an opportunity to refresh our clothes via the washer dryer. Very easy to walk around the anau from here. The couple who run the motel were friendly and went out of their way to help us on a rainy day. Will come again and recommend.

This is a beautifully kept traditional motel run by a friendly young couple providing access to the Fiordland National Park and beyond. The motel is minutes from Lake Te Anau and walking distance from the town itself which has a good range of shops, restaurants and cafes. Our studio was well equipped with everything a couple needs to prepare simple meals in lieu of eating out and provided comfortable, clean and spacious living with free parking for the car.

この町のモーテル群のなかでは商店・飲食店から一番離れた地域ですが、十分徒歩圏。施設・設備は可もなく不可もなく、ごく一般的な低予算モーテルですが、ダイニングキッチンが狭いため全体的に窮屈な印象。

Management are friendly. Good facilities in our unit, with plenty of DVDs. The kitchen fixtures are tired and dated, which could benefit from updating but everything was clean. The bed was very comfortable, king size and good linen.

The room was adequate. It was clean. It was old and outdated. The bathroom seemed to be updated. The shower water was only hot for a short time. Only place to sit was a hard small chair, 2 per room. No freezer space in very small fridge. The bed was sagging on both sides and my husband almost rolled off
