"Everything that we needed and more! The woman at the front desk, Denise, was so welcoming and sweet! We came on Christmas after a very cold and wet hike and found the room to be a delight! Heater works well, kitchen is well stocked, room is pristine, bed is comfy, and shower is high pressure and hot! The location is also off the road a bit so very quiet and relaxing. Would definitely stay here again < 3"
"Stayed at this location on our trip around New Zealand. The Inn was centrally located and close to restaurants. The rooms were clean and tidy. The only issue was the toilet and bathroom were on the smaller size. Priced suitably for the budget traveler. Would recommend."
"Great place to stay.It's situated down a driveway so no traffic noise.Most helpful host.Units nice and clean and everything that you need.Bed nice and comfortable.Handy location."
"Stayed here for 6 weeks for work stuff. All the rooms provided the comfort and the space to be able to rest and unwind from a busy day. The owners are amazing - helpful and very accommodating and always open to improving their service. Has secure parking space and while its along the main road, the rooms are tucked away from the business of the streets. Definitely recommend this place!"
"Great service and owners, super helpful and friendly. The room is decent size. I was there on work trip and it has everything I need. The room’s been clean on daily basis and the owner is approachable and kind to share information about the town. The area is quiet at night too so no earplugs needed. 😊"
