This has been our favourite place to stay during our South Island trip. We stayed here while visiting Lake Takapō and the biggest standout was the insane level of cleanliness. The place was absolutely spotless, surfaces gleaming. Comes with AC and a damn good shower with a super comfy bed. About a 20 min drive to the lake, but this also makes it really affordable. Absolutely fantastic rest stop on our hectic schedule and it gets our full recommendation!
