Great location, good value, very clean, helpful staff, breakfast and evening soup, kitchenette with small refrigerator and microwave
Bathroom sink very small - glad there was a kitchen counter; bed was a bit saggy but we still slept well

Funky digs. Located in the centre of town. Easy walking to shops restaurants and glow worm walks. Super cool staff and stay included breakfast and a soup dinner. Easy travel to Franz Josef glacier.
Bathroom could use an update. Screens on the windows would be great. Mosquitoes and sandflies are pain if you leave the door or window open.

Very relaxed feel and atmosphere. Complete room. They tried to make the best out of the hot tub on the car park.
Due to the cars one meter from your room it feels like you are trapped inside. The wall just behind the window on the other side did not help either. Small room due to the two beds but maybe others are better.

Right in the heart of town center.
There was a kitchenette with bread toaster, a sink, microwave, mini fridge, but would have been great if a small electric stove was provided.
