I was travelling by myself in NZ and on a budget, so I chose the Black Sheep lodge. I was staying in a single room with shared bathroom. The room was no frills but clean, and that is the most important thing to me! bathrooms were regularly cleaned too and hot water helped surviving in the cold month of June!... more

Stayed in a double room here for 7 nights. TV in room and tea/coffee. Great location and atmosphere. Spa pool and bbq area out the back which would be great in summer. Showers were fantastic and the whole place was generally very clean. Staff were very helpful in booking ski packages/trips etc. There's a bar on site too. What more... more
