Good location near the Firefly Trail, close to shops and vendors, and parking in front of the door.
Small like all cabins, curtains could be sturdier. All in all, I would book it again.
I got upgraded to another room so I was thankful for that !
The room smelled a bit (moldish) even though the guests already there had opened the window but by night, it got better.
Otherwise, the room was big and had a heater which was really convenient.
I was happy to see a sink in the room but it wasn't usable unfortunately. I thought it would have been nice!
The kitchen is well equipped, there are books available in the dining room!
Emplacement is very good, close to the train station and a few activities.
The boss is not good, he introduces the surrounding environment, there are supermarkets, barbecue shops, bars nearby, you can shop for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and have a laundry dryer. We can't speak English, the boss specially called the Chinese guy in the store to translate, which is great.
The hotel location is very good, the service is good, there are features, it is raining that day, the weather is cold, the heating is turned on in advance, as soon as you enter the room, the room is warm, and the room has a kitchenette.

advantage:
It is very close to the trail for watching fireflies at night, only a 500-meter walk away. It is also very close to Lake Matheson and Fox Glacier Viewpoint by car, 10 minutes one way.
shortcoming:
The room is small and basic;
There is no one at the front desk at 20:30, so it takes time to find a room when checking in at night;
Parking spaces are tight and you can't park at all at night, so you can only park on the roadside outside.
The law-abiding backpacker hotel, we stayed for two days, the two-person room did not have a separate bathroom, but was assigned to a house, just no other guests, we will have that one. The saloon can also ~ the kitchen also provides basic pots and pans, etc. ~ Advantages, there is a complimentary breakfast, and there is a hot soup in the evening, although they are all the same thing! And parking is convenient! Disadvantages, I don't know if we are on the side or not, I can't even get wifi, I just ran to the saloon, and there was a bit of noise when it rained, because the roof of the corridor is iron, but the room is not, barely Not too noisy.
I stayed here when I went to Nelson a while ago. The parking lot is relatively small, and the price/performance ratio is good. It is a relatively cheap accommodation nearby. Overall, it is good.
Very Good

TTohArrived at the hotel a little bit late for the check-in, but the reception was very accommodating and still processed for us with a big smile and was very friendly!
Rooms were very clean, complete with AC and heater, towels provided as well.
Laundry avail for use (paid use only and hours apply)
Beds were nice, great amenities! With full kitchen including fridge, stove, microwave and washing sink. Cooking utensils and pots pans avail too.
Wasn't expecting much for a motel but this was actually a really great and comfortable stay!
Short 2 to 5min drive to nearest supermarkets and petrol stations
1123-travellerA typical motel with its own kitchen and bathroom. The room facilities are very good and the hygiene is also very good. In addition to the bed, there are sofas, dining tables and dining chairs. There are front and back doors, parking on one side, and a lawn and leisure platform on the other side. The service staff is very enthusiastic and will tell you the nearby tourist information and weather conditions. The hotel is on the Fox Glacier Road. Go to Lake Mathisen and the glacier viewing point on the right hand side of the door. Just drive straight and follow the road signs. No navigation is required. In short, it is cost-effective and very satisfactory.

WWater TravelThe staff is very helpful, she asked me where to go when checking out, she told us the road is being blocked for our next next station. So that we can change our itinerary anc book another motel, otherwise our trip will be in a mess.
The motel location is good, only the walking distance can reach the town center and the beach. However the motel is quiet, we can hear the bird sound to wake us up.
But pls note that the motel do not provide toothpaste and toothbrush, remember bring them by yourself.
HHUACHIHWe came here to stay by train. Although the motel is not very new, it has everything. There are supermarkets and daily necessities stores at the foot of the mountain. It takes about ten minutes to walk there. When the sidewalk is about to disappear, there is a trail connecting it in a hidden place, and you can walk to the parking lot of the grocery store.
The hotel can pick you up at the train station, which is actually very suitable for people like us who have big luggage from overseas and don’t have a car. recommend
GGuest UserThe hotel in Haast captured the essence of rugged beauty and tranquility. Surrounded by dramatic landscapes and pristine wilderness, it provided a true escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The cozy rooms and comfortable amenities offered a welcome respite after a day of exploring. The knowledgeable staff provided valuable insights into the local area, enhancing the overall experience. the hotel was a hidden gem in the remote and untouched Haast region.
AAnonymous UserThe hotel is located just across from the bus station. Although it is a motel, the room facilities fully meet the living purpose of non-self-driving travel. It is clean and comfortable, and the room with floor-to-ceiling glass doors has good light.
TTomtanchThe hotel seems new and all the rooms were very clean. There was also a nice little kitchen and a spa bath tub, which we did not find the time to use. Special mention to the kind lady at the reception who was very helpful and informative. Thanks!
We drove to visit the Fox Glacier Walk and the Lake Matheson Trail, which was about half an hour drive away. There were supermarkets nearby in case one planned to cook or dine in at the restaurants.
JJIEAfter the check-in, the boss personally knocked on the door and asked me that your child also needs to pay the same amount as the adult. So I gave him another 25 New Zealand dollars based on the room rate. And added that the hotel profile says that children are allowed to stay and my child is only 5 year old! I don't understand such charges! I have been to many countries and this is the first time I have met! Let me talk about the speed! Basically, there is no net around 7:00 in the evening! The landlord said that I might have it later.
