We expected to have some kind of view of the lake... the photo of the building was the local iconic CHURCH on the lake... we thought it was actually the lodge. Once we got there it was fine enough but we expected more upscale experience. We enjoyed it enough but for us would not choose to stay there next time.

Property did not meet vision as shown on website. Basically a donga hut split into 3 rooms. Had to get manager (off site) to come and program TV. No iron or ironing board. In the middle of "no where".

한적하고 조용한 위치의 깔끔한 숙소 추천

객실은 비교적 좁은 편이지만, 주방과 욕실은 깨끗하고 사용하기 편리합니다. 침구류는 깨끗하게 정리되어 있었고 객실의 전반적인 관리 또한 훌륭했습니다. 특히, 숙소의 위치가 조용하고 한적한 주택 지역이라 편안한 휴식이 가능하고, 집 밖에서 바로 별도 볼 수 있습니다. 유일한 단점은 객실이 다소 협소하는 점입니다. 그 외 모든 점이 완벽합니다.

The room (at least the 2 persons rooms) can be small and can be quite hot if you don’t want to open windows or aircon. There is no front desk so you just have to self check-in with the code provided. There’s onsite parking and it’s nearby to a lot of restaurants.

Lake Tekapo was great, and Skyrim was a great place to stay. Very bright and spacious. Parking was confusing (who is supposed to park where?) but adequate. The kitchen was big and useful, but we suggest adding some cutting boards, and maybe an oven. We bought frozen pizzas for our first meal, and we were disappointed that we couldn't cook them. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our apartment, and we miss it!

Basic housing in a fairly new property. It's prefab bulit, so it's not fancy. It's on the smallish side. It's in a new section of town. There is no view of the lake.

Misleading pictures on the listing and title

The listing is very misleading. The property name is “one bedroom suite” and the picture shows one bedroom and it also has full size kitchen and laundry. However it is actually a studio with a small kitchenette with no laundry. I’m really disappointed by the misinformation

Beautiful room, but no view

We were very impressed with the room and how nice it was but can't help but feel misled by the pictures in the original post. There are a lot of new developments in the area so the pictures shown on the listing are not the view you will get. I'm not sure if any of the rooms have that view. We booked this place solely on hoping for some mountain views, but instead we were looking at another unit. Also went out to look at the stars but all of the motion lights kept turning on so we had to walk quite a ways away from the property. Again this place could sell itself on how nice it is and we would stay again but I hope they can update the photos so no one else is surprised. Thanks for a great stay anyway.
