Location is fine, at the north end of a small town. Warm, private with blinds and way more facilities than we used. The only accommodation we could find in Hokitika with hose showers - two actually. I don't understand why motels and hotels offer rooms with simple overhead showers - they miss important parts of a standing person!!
Great to have Apple TV during the olympics, that enabled us to stream from our iPad app which enables specific viewing of single events - way better than broadcast :-)
