"Oh my goodness! This was the most amazing little place. The floors were heated. The room was very modern. It had a Nespresso machine. The kitchen was super well stocked. The bathroom had everything you would want and the products smelled amazing! I wish we weee staying in that hotel our entire visit to NZ! Loved it. Sadly we simply stopped there for a night from Lake Tekapo toward Wanaka after hiking around Mount Cook. Fabulous stay. Thank you."
