Nice clean and comfortable. Great reception servic
Check in was smooth and quick. The key was waiting for us when we arrived a few hours after check in time. We were also given an upgrade to a larger room. Receptionist who handed us the key was Completely relaxed and friendly with giving us some helpful tips and directions.
The room was clean and roomy. I appreciated that there ia a full length mirror in the room besides the bathroom mirror. Very practical.
Only niggly issue we felt was the extractir fan in the bathroom is noisy and can't be switched off. We kept the bathroom door closed to dampen the noise. The hallway heater was also a bit rattly and noisy. We are greatful thatvthey stored our luggage for us after we checked out when we went on an overnight cruise.

Clean, quiet, spacious room within easy walking distance to the center of Te Anau as well as to the lake. Convenient to have a kitchenette and the complimentary bottle of milk was a welcomed touch. Perfect base for our excursion into the Milford Sound / Fiordland area.
