The room was clean but really out of date. The location is nice and peaceful. One of the few places on our trip that had some effort on waste recycling.

Very nice little apartment for a couple of nights in Ohakune. The room and amenities were super clean and the staff were really friendly. Our only drawback was that the bed was a bit soft for our liking, but you can't please everyone all the time.

Great Mountain View.

Great cute little hotel. Clean and comfortable room. Close to cute eating areas and just a 20 min drive to the best view of the mountains. Staff was super nice and friendly. No complaints at all. I’ll stay here next time I’m in town.
