All we needed

We only stayed overnight and very helpful they left the key for us for late check in. Clean, comfortable bed, and modern. Great location for Wanaka. The only thing to note is there is traffic noise in the morning and the curtains were quite thin, so it was very bright from sunrise. Also, our balcony wouldn’t lock as it was broken.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The perfect location for exploring Wanaka! Walking distance to the town centre and all surrounding shops/eateries and scenic views (that Wanaka Tree) while not being in the heart where it may be too crowded and loud. Staff were very friendly, as was the resident cat! The room was great with a kitchenette and bathroom. The only thing that was not perfect was there was no fan in the bathroom and the window opened up to a staircase as we were on the bottom floor, so there was not much privacy when airing it out. Besides that it was a lovely stay for a couple of nights.

I think we were in the 80s. Very disappointed

Extremely outdated motel. Not even with an air conditioning. Felt like you were back in the 80s. There was a pub very close by and the music keep us awake whole night. If you are a hiker want to get a night sleep before hitting down to Roy’s peak like us, this is definitely not the place to stay.
