Quirky old style overnighter
The guy at teception was friendly. The place definitely takes you back in time. Humble basic set up needing some love The shower block was quirky but awesome shower temperature and strength. The bunk beds in our cabin wrre firm and squeaky. The cabin had a bar fridge which was great. Right next to the lake.

Although we checked in late but we were still able to manage to get the key and find our cabin. Shared bathroom was clean. I suggest that at least provide coffee cups in the cabin. The place was nice and quiet and Lake Ruataniwha was stunning! And it was easy to find good restaurants in the town.

This was a lovely little place to stay before going to Mt. Cook. We met a large group of friends who travel there every year from Dunedin and Christchurch. Tons of fun and very respectful of noise.

Great Motel
I stayed in the motel room with a spa. The room was large and comfortable. There was a nice view to the lake. The kitchenette and bathroom were modern.

Nice setting, okay stay.
The room was larger than expected and had plenty of room to spread out a little and get organized. The bed was comfortable but it was very difficult to access power for chargers and my husband’s c-pap machine. The wifi was awful. It barely worked and often the service dropped altogether. The hiking around the lake was lovely and a fairly easy walk. Even though we were attached to other units, our room was fairly quiet. I was not happy that there was a sign saying I had to clean the dishes or be charged an extra fee! For the amount we paid for the room, that was ridiculous. Also, if you want someone to do dishes, give them the proper tools to accomplish the task! There was only one small dish towel and no dish drainer or rack. There was a fairly nice playground for kids available, but we were traveling by ourselves.
