Good location with easy access. Road 6 on the west coast is absolutely fantastic and scenery is outstanding if sky is clear. This hotel was clean and fit very very well to our purpose of having a one night stop on our way to north. Fox glacier walkaway was also worth taking.

Very cute hotel, very clean, very large room with a special place for two suitcases, all the necessary facilities, including a washing machine and dryer for a nominal fee in the end of the corridor . The staff was great, very friendly and willing to help with everything. The location is excellent, right in the center of town and close to the grocery store and restaurants. Simply wonderful!
