Hotel is something out a wild west movie. No cellphone coverage and limited wifi only if near the main building. Mondays the place is closed all locked up. My room was great tho had everything I needed. Clean and tidy. Ensuite was excellent clean and shower was hot. Excellent vegetarian burger and chips.

Wasn't a huge fan of this place. The staff weren't very friendly and the sign says happy hour until 8:30, but they said it now ends at 8. They overcharged burgers for multiple people in our group. The property is rundown and the doors are both hard to open and loud. I'd never recommend staying here. They clearly take advantage of tourists and overcharge everything they can.

R and R on a great location
Great stay just outside Hokitika 5mins heading south. Cooking area was a bit spartan with old school hobs which worked ok. Food was nice great portions of blue cod and chips with salad . Friendly staff great location

2/10 Poor

Terrible. Nada recomendable
Terrible experiencia de inicio a fin. Estaba lleno de niños de 20 años, y todo estaba pensado para ellos, por lo que les ponen karaoke de 21 a 23h, y da igual lo mucho que griten o alboroten a cualquiero hora de la noche, no hay normas. No solo no se puede dormir por el escándalo y las voces de los fiesteros, si no que la cama es horrible también, imposible dormir. La cocina sucisima y ni la limpian cuando cierran de 21h a 6am. El baño sin papel y 2 duchas para mujeres para todo el camping. Desastroso. Nunca más
