This is a very nice place to stay. Large rooms and very quiet. The only slight problem is that the shower doesn't have a shower curtain and there is no soap holder.

Gorgeous place to stay. Room was large with huge bed and living area. Big well equipped bathroom. Short drive to town for some dinner. Staff were extremely friendly and a pleasure to deal with. Great spot to stay when heading out to see the glow worm caves.

We spent 1 night at this property. If you overlook some small things like a broken sink, floors that are taped down and broken furniture , you’ll be just fine. It’s clean, friendly and close to the things we wanted to do. Not bad, just needs a little upkeep and maintenance. I would stay here again.

There is no mention on the site about the trains tracks that run directly behind the property.and the River view is more a creek which you couldnt really see because of the overgrown grass and trees. It was clean and had everything we needed for our one night stay. the bed was comfortable.

The young lady at the front desk was so cordial and most helpful. The rooms are cleaned very well, and as much as I travel I know what cleaned well is. Highly recommend this location if you’re traveling through beautiful New Zealand.

Property Location is good. It’s spacious and good with clean linens and towels. Absolutely recommend. It’s close to the road so you can hear cars pass by every time even at night. We just turned on some white noise and slept through the night. Other than that we had an excellent stay..
