Average
The bathroom had big long black hairs on floor and behind the door and also caught up in the plastic bathmat. The sink had a ring of grime around plug hole in both rooms booked that could do with a good scrub. Beds had to much bedding on them making them far to soft

A nice safe bet in Dunedin
A nice mid range hotel. Nothing super flash but more than comfortable. Good location, parking on site and super friendly staff, a big shout out to Theodore who went out of his way to look after our group. Great service.

One of the internal sliding windows, which was about 1.5 metres, jumped out of its rails when I was closing it smashed and just about took me out with it, they were so good about it moving us to a superior room, they couldn’t apologise enough, even though I kept saying to the, it’s not your fault these things happen

The only thing to remember is this hotel does not have free parking included however there is a row of council parking out the front that we used and it is freefrom 6pm to 9am. Good customer services. The room was large, warm and the beds were very comfy. Even though its in the CBD there was no noise so great nights sleep. I would stay here again. I booked a twin room for 2 people it met our needs.
