Our apartment was big, enough room for us to have our own space which was perfect for our family. The bathroom seemed to have been recently refurbished and was nice. The rest of the apartment could do with an update and some work, though it seems like they may be doing it up? Was possibly the most run down motel... More

Don't bother with this place - especially if you've looked at their website and are expecting your room to look like the one advertised. Talk about misleading advertising - surely it's illegal. We arrived expecting a really nice place and what we got was a complete dive. We couldn't get out of there fast enough.

More fool us. We didn't review Tripadvisor before we booked, and now wish we had. And our comments are pretty much mirrored by previous occupants. The images on the internet site are very different to the actual motel itself. It is very tired and run down. Our two storied apartment reeked of upholstery cleaner when we opened the door, and...

While in Te Anau we used their brochure to select a reservation. Upon arrival, we found our room to be in disrepair. The lights didn't work, the rooms were cold and moudly, the walls were peeling off, and there was a mouse-trap by our entrance. The chairs had human hair bunched on the backs. The sheets in one bedroom were... More

My workmate and I rented an upstairs apartment for a 3 day conference. This is what you get for $145 per night: two bedroom apartment - upstairs room having the best view with a double and single bed, downstairs a much smaller room with two single beds (electric blankets was a nice touch). Kitchen was small (no dishwasher) with only... More

DO NOT STAY HERE! We arrived to find that the images provided online were a total lie. We were three groups travelling together, one got a newly renovated room and the others were in rooms which had obviously recieved no attention since the 70s. The flooring was coming apart, the lights didn't work, the rooms were cold and moudly, the... More

Primary reason for choosing this motel was its proximity to the University of Otago to attend a conference. Stayed in a two room renovated apartment. It was on the ground floor close to the (main) road, so quite noisy. Thankfully the bedrooms were on the back wall, furthest from the roadside, so sleep was not too disrupted by traffic. Firstly...
