We had a great 2 night stay here during our travels around NZ. Beautiful mountain and lake views from the living area and patio. It was a nice walk into the downtown area and we used a rideshare back because we were too tired to walk back uphill. It was a great place to relax after a long day and it was nice to be able to do some laundry here as well. The guidebook also gave us some good ideas of things to do in town!
