I didn't mind the place but it's no good with kids...
There was an empty wine glass on the window, sill, the toilet was badly stained ( my daughter didn't even want to use it). The person who took me to my room didn't introduce himself or let us know if we needed help and who to call incase. I felt like we were rushed to our room and we felt like an inconvenience because he had to come out from behind the bar to take us, too our room.
WiFi reception was very slow.
The bed was comfortable and the location was nice as it was just around the corner from warehouse.
Well for starters the beds horrible mattress to soft and to big for bed blankets to thin pillows horrible
No coffee cups supplied nor any milky and sugar wifi was glitchy asf
No air conditioning available
I enjoyed my stay very much quite relaxing after work i did feel i had the place to myself it was lovely

They had us booked in for the wrong night and ended up putting us in another room. It was very cold and no warmth. I had to take a blanket off another bed because the room was so cold. Cheap with no value.

You get what you pay for! For the price we paid our room was good. Clean and tidy but bed etc could do with replacing.
Was reasonably cheap. Duvet on bed was disgusting, had stains on it and smelt terrible, blanket in cupboards not much better. Was good to have ensuite in room though.
The accommodation is situated next door to the pub, where you check in. The hotel manager was friendly and brought me a second heater for my room without needing to ask (on a very cold winter night). The rooms are very basic as expected, but attached bathroom and shower were fine for my needs (although the shower had very low pressure). A good option for a quick overnight stay if passing through Central Otago.
