Room had spiderwebs on stool. Went to make a cup of tea and bottom saucer filthy. Shower over bath and took about 10 min to heat up. We are elderly and didn’t find it very convenient! Toilets not very clean. Grounds looked like they needed a good tidy up. Overall the motels looked they needed pulling down!

It was very nice to be able to sit outside under cover with a drink and enjoy the amazing view. Linen was nice and very clean, plenty of soaps, shampoos, coffee, tea etc, bed was comfortable and warm. However attention to detail cleaning the rooms was lacking, dirty skirting boards, a table obviously not moved and vacuumed under for many months, broken light in the bedroom.

Just basic accommodation. We arrived around 6:30pm and nothing in the town was open for food so we had to drive to Te Anau. The water went off (it was a whole town outage) but with no water in the fridge it made for an uncomfortable night. It was back on in the morning for a well needed shower.

When I made the booking I saw that it advertised as wheel chair accessible.Not!! When you got out of the car there where 3 steps to climb to get to the unit these were at less 20cm high For the wheel chair to gain access we had to push the chair down a gravel driveway to access the concrete path to the unit. Before we got on to the path we had a fairly high lip to get over. We were in unit 18 so it was hard pushing the chair. To get into the unit you had another step,again 20cm high. No way could my husband manage this. Fortunately we travel with a small ramp so we were able to get in going in back wards - again another high lip at door entrance. Movement available around the unit NIL. Shower over the bath !! WE WILL NOT BE GOING BACK

Water was not available for some time but we were not notified by the staff. There was a toaster but no plates, bowls or cutlery (except teaspoons) to be able to have cereal or toast. The fridge froze the milk. There was no fan or means of cooling the room on the hot night I had there, nor was there a top sheet or doona cover on the bed. Another guest was allocated an uncleaned room and had a lot of trouble contacting staff to deal with it.

Very disappointing! The motel was so unkept and a ghost town. They confirmed I could check in an hour earlier and when I got there reception was closed from 12 -2pm! Not a soul around so left a message at front desk. The property is so rundown, lawns overgrown, broken fixtures around the place, all the cafe/ restaurant options onsite were closed despite listing what's available in the accommodation file. They allowed a massive double container truck to park in the front blocking the views from the accommodation so that impacted the only positive thing about it.

When I booked this place for a family holiday in NZ, the rate seemed a bit high compared to others; but I was getting the "lakeview holiday home" so it seemed worth it. Sadly, this was the Nightmare Before Christmas combined with the Shining. Upon arrival, it was rundown outside, but things got worse. Our 'holiday home' had a broken bulb on the ground outside the door with broken glass, a rusted round clothesline outside, the toilet didn't work & was next to the washer, the grass was uncut, a picnic table had peeling paint you would get splinters from, the fuse box was exposed & the wifi didn't work. The check-in man was fine -but it was his 2nd day on the job & he didn't know anything. I wanted to check out immediately & messaged expedia but was cut off due to the lack of internet & was told the hotel's policy was no refund for the full stay. There was no one at the front desk for me to call. The next day -still no working toilet & the front desk assistant couldn't understand English even though the hotel is in NZ. She brought a plunger for my husband to use & a key to a room across the parking lot if the plunger didn't work. Then I spoke to the bartender/manager who said to email him & he would send my email to the owner re a refund, Nothing happened. But I did find an unknown man's underwear on the bedroom floor. DON'T STAY HERE. IT IS A SCARY, UNKEMPT RIPOFF. Stay elsewhere. NZ is great. This place is an insult to the country & to Expedia for listing it.

The views are to die for. The rooms are bot serviced daily. The whole place is very run down and needs a good weed, mow and paint. The bar and restaurant looked closed all the time. Rooms were clean enough but need much attention.

Someone (another guest?) unlocked our door and walked into our room while we were in there. An older building and a bit shabby-- this was fine, expected. But. Only one outlet in the entire room worked. There was a TV, fridge, two heaters, electric blanket... but none of them could work because the plug points were non-functional. There was rubbish under the bed from previous guests and hair in the sink. There was no daily service (towels, etc). Basically it seems like a dying motel on its last legs. The beds were very comfortable and warm, at least, and it had a great view sitting on the balcony.

Access to the lake was a 3 minute walk. Short drive to Te Anau. Requested a two bed room - given a one bed. When we changed to a two bed room there wasn’t a pillow for one bed. No tee towel or dish cloth. Small table needed a good cleaning.
