“The inner courtyard garden was a great break from the busyness of the city. Laundry facilities were two doors down from our room. Very clean and everything worked well.”

“In comparison to 11 other hotel/motels we stayed in, this was by far one of our favourites. It was cheaper than others, but the quality of the furnishings made the room feel luxurious and more like a 5-star. The bed was extremely comfortable,...”

“The rooms were very spacious, it’s a quirky property tucked away inconspicuously in a fairly nondescript area of Dunedin but it even has a little enclosed garden and is very quiet. All the rooms surround the garden. We had one with disabled access...”

“This place is a gem. Near everything in town, but feels quiet and peaceful. Rooms are arranged around a lovely courtyard, sheltered from the hubbub of the city. And it is clean and friendly.”

“Hotel was very clean. Suite looked brand new. Kitchen and fixtures all new. Parking was free, easy and on premises. Front desk (Duncan) very responsive, helpful, and affable. If you need TV, plenty of free options. 15 minute walk down George to...”
