The hotel facilities are average, but they have everything you need. The location is very good, on the main street, very close to the meeting point for glacier hiking, and only 5 minutes walk from the trail where you can see fireflies. The boss is very nice, answering all questions and introducing us to many surrounding attractions. I forgot to mention that the boss is Chinese, and I felt very close to him because he could communicate in Chinese.

The location is excellent, right next to the glacier hiking meeting point. The manager is Chinese, which is convenient

The hotel is in a great location, close to the firefly trail and helicopter company. The room is big, the owner is Chinese, and the service is very good.

The hygiene is really poor. There are obvious large stains on the carpets and bedding. The tableware is also greasy. The worst accommodation in New Zealand.

The room is very costly for motel standard. We have booked the room of 1 double + 1 single only to be told this is for 2 pax! Last minute being asked to top up NZD123 to accommodate 2 kids. The room is dated with basic necessities, hot water run out in the middle of shower and the bed is soft with parts sunk in.
