Guest Reviews

Mary Ann (9/5): - Comfortable and kids were happy as they have Netflix and YouTube
Rowena (10/5): Check in was informative, taking time to provide a map of Franz Josef- places to eat and activities. Showed us to our ro - Spacious room. Clean and friendly staff
Natalie (9/5): Lovely apartment in a great location - Very comfortable apartment with a well equipped kitchenette. No oven or hob but you do get a microwave. It’s in a perfect location to stay a few days and do activities in the franz josef area. The bathroom smelled a little odd but it was livable
Christine (7/5): Overall value for money, a comfy bed, clean and quiet - Good location a cheap and cheerful motel with a comfortable bed, microwave, hot shower, good location Didn’t realise when booking that we were in a top floor unit. My partner who had a knee injury struggled upstairs. Staff did offer us a downstairs unit for $40 extra as it was a family unit but we managed. No fault of the owners though. No one answering bell at reception and we waited about 15 mins for someone to come. Our tv had internet problems and couldn’t connect to WIFI.
Gaffie (10/5): - Friendly host, clean and tidy room
Ya-Ling (10/5): -
Aubrey (9/5): - The facilities that were unique and very funcional suited the surrounding environment Car parking can be limited in proximity to cabins

Joseph (8/5): - The rooms are quite spacious for what you pay, also the location was good since it was in the middle of town. The rooms come with a fully equipt kitchen so you can cook rather then eating out. The space for car park is not the best, we were lucky that there was not much people parked so we could get around but if it was fully booked it would be a bit tight.
Kevin (10/5): - Lovely central location. Clean room. Friendly staff. Staying overnight so it was great.
Sander (8/5): - Locatie en dat het netjes was Is wat gehorig. Konden de buren horen tv kijken. Niet handig met kleine kids.
Jie Ru Evelyn (8/5): Value for money! - Despite being a motel, the amenities provided and service rendered are comparable to hotel standards. Location of the property is also ace with eateries and supermarket a stone’s throw away! The beds are pretty springy so it wasn’t the most comfortable to sleep on. However, we only stayed for a night so it wasn’t much of a big deal.

Lisa (9/5): Very comfortable, clean and spacious room with continental breakfast provided. - Loved having a small terrace and being able to see the glacier from it. The kitchenette and breakfast food provided was beyond our expectation.

Christine (9/5): Well Located and Comfortable - Very welcoming check-in staff. The room was pre-warmed and had lots of comforts supplied. Would stay again. The bed was a tad saggy for an old back.

jorgepur (10/5): - Una estancia estupenda y muy acogedora. El alojamiento es perfecto para desconectar, ya que goza de bastante tranquilidad y está rodeado de un entorno precioso, cerca de los puntos de interés de la zona. Muy buena limpieza y la habitación destacaba por su comodidad, ideal para descansar tras un día de montaña. El personal fue muy amable y atento. Sin duda, una opción muy recomendable para disfrutar de la zona.

Liette (9/5): - Super emplacement, confortable.
Wren (10/5): Great location, upgrades are nice, clean and comfortable. -
Carl (9/5): A great stay. - Lovely room. Kitchen has everything we needed to make our dinner. Bed was comfortable and seats too. Must give a big thumbs up and compliment the ‘mood’ lighting: wall lights (not a bright, glaring overhead light) and a stand along lamp. Excellent! The spa bath was lovely also. A nice treat. The water pressure was such that the bath took forever to fill up. The shower head was very low so crouching down to wash hair was difficult. Probably that low because of the water pressure maybe. Otherwise everything was great.
