    Toilet was surprisingly in pristine condition, considering that a lot of these motels or similar can be quite old. Ceiling heater in toilet was so warm and nice because it was the first we saw on the trip, but subsequently realised that was quite a common heater. Stayed in cosy 1 bedroom apartment, with a small kitchen for me to prep breakfast for next day when we head off! A pity it was just for a 1night stay, since it was a stopover betweenPicton ferry terminal and Lake tekapo. but was definitely a good 1 night short stay!

    No breakfast studio flat. Walking distance to train & Whale Watching. Everything I needed in the studio flat. Separate kitchen with all the gadgets I needed (like a can opener, cutting board, microwave bowls etc) which I haven't got in all the other motels stayed in hence the high praise & the fridge was in the closed kitchen - lovely nights sleep thank you.

    Great for a short stay - we booked two apartments for one night. Both were clean, with everything we needed. Great location - just over the road from the whale watching and close to the high street, without the noise.

    Very clean but studio room was a bit small compared to other properties we’ve been to. The receptionist did warn us and did offer us a bigger apartment . Also, a bit further from town than we expected.
