Property was close to major road. Lake view was obstructed due to plants and road. Bed was very comfortable and contained both a shower and very deep bathtub. Unit had refrigerator, but no microwave or dishes/utensils like all the other rooms we stayed in for our 3 weeks in NZ. Coffee provided in the unit was instant.

Pros: the property is very close to the lake and within walking distance of the main Lake Tekapo area. Cons: check-in took a lot longer than it should have, and staff seemed rather blasé. Was expecting better customer service from its other reviews. Also worth noting - they have 2 washers and 2 dryers. Don’t do your laundry here though- they’re not maintained well. The dryer took over 2 hours to get anything dry.

The room smelled like chemicals, then I found a can of bug spray in the cupboard and realized that it is what the room smelled like. Not an environment I wanted to sleep in. My TV wasn't working and I had to get someone to come fix it which took about 20 minutes. My meal at the restaurant was pretty bad. After a long day, I was looking forward to a decent meal and was quite disappointed.

Good room - comfortable big king bed, lovely shower. Room was small and wifi was spotty. But nice for a one night stay. The hotel rooms are very small for the tariff and any more than 1 night, I would recommend a larger room. But pleasant staff, easy checkin and quiet location.
