8/10

An affordable (non-camping) choice to base yourself for the Hooker Valley and surrounding hikes. The A-Frame rooms reminded me of school camps. Lots of timber and basic facilities. The room was clean and large and had everything you need. Great location, plenty of parking and the star gazing was incredible.

We enjoyed the quietness of the motel and found the beds and pillows to be amazing.

Breaking our journey from Dunedin to Christchurch with the idea we’d drive up to Mt Cook after check in. Had a few housekeeping issues which we brought to their attention, so hopefully they are resolved. Friendly helpful staff, comfy bed. Bathrooms need a bit of updating. Heating good.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The check in was very easy. It was a great location for our activities. We were not expecting anything special and that is what we got so we were fine with the stay over all. It is a cabin after all.

Having stayed in one of the A frame units previously i anticipated that this what i had booked again. However i was told i was actually in the 'cottage'. This was a sleepout/low end air bnb at best, not to mention that it was on the other side of twizel in an urban street (not part of the motel complex and therefore not associated with all their facilities). There was nowhere to sit and eat (counter top or table). No milk, sugar, salt/pepper. A microwave with no bowls and utensils was the only cooking option. In fairness, milk was provided when i called. The cottage was not serviced during our stay. This was an extremely disappointing booking and i will not be repeating the experience again.

The service was horrible. The soaps were not refilled before the new occupant arrived. The carpet was dirty. It was so cold since there is no heater. The town has few dining options.

Cute little chalet, easy check in. Clean bed, nice kitchenette. Not too far from Christchurch, great launching point for Lake Tekapo, Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park, and Wanaka. Can walk to downtown/restaurants, a park with old machinery just across the road kids might like.

Conveniently located near food and the main road to head out of Twizel. Appreciated the kitchenette with a kettle and refrigerator. Quiet and had what I needed. Wifi was very poor. Only briefly early morning was it ok and then it was so slow nothing would load.
