Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This place needs a little help…..cleaner carpets, upgrade of bed linen and cover, a mattress that doesn’t rest on the bed board, and an internet service that actually works. Appeared clean but had a smell of harsh cleaning materials upon entry.

This was a stopover visit on the way to Dunedin with my teenage daughter. Room was exactly what we wanted. Its was super clean, spacious with an excellent shower and all the right amenities. We were also late to check in and they communicated really well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

They were amazing. Fitted me in at the last minute after my booking agency double booked me somewhere else. Room was very clean, and had everything I needed. Ground floor also, it was set up for complete disabled occupant and would have fit the bill nicely. Easy parking and a great restaurant on site. 5 stars!

Spotlessly clean unit we couldn't fault anything and been upstairs found we didn't hear any noise from courtyard parking. Perhaps a bit far from historic Oamaru area and whilst there was a restaurant on site we drove to town centre for eating options. Rooms were generous size so plenty of room to unpack and basic kitchen facilities were fine.

The room was very basic with a very small bathroom. The outdoor seating area was in need of some serious maintenance. The paving stones were full of weeds, the trees were overgrown and the outdoor furniture had seen better days. The restaurant food was quite bland but the portion sizes were very generous, however way too much for the average person. Nice, friendly staff though, and they were willing to help.

Fabulously located within walking distance of the heritage precinct and blue penguin viewing site. This place seems very new and has been thoughtfully fitted out with little touches of luxury. The bed is super comfy and view out the the ocean lovely. Very quiet and welcoming. Can recommend !

Staff are friendly and nice, and check was easy. Was so unimpressed that they put me next to a covid positive patient that was isolating when they had other rooms available. The walls were paper thin so everything he coughed, I felt like I was getting coughed on. The beds were so hard to the point they were almost painful and I considered sleeping on my yoga Matt on the floor. Notice in shower saying if steam from shower triggered fire alarm you would be charged $250, yet they had no extractor van. Continental breakfast they served in the restaurant was actually embarrassing. Warm yogurt, dry toast or rice bubbles/ cornflakes that looked like they had been there years. Just a terrible experience.

On booking we were advised that they did not have a liquor license due to COVID-19, That should have rung enough alarm bells, but of no consequence as we were dining with our grandson. We ordered our mains with a garlic bread to start. The bread wasn't too bad and that was about where it stopped. I ordered the Blue Cod on special, my wife ordered the roast Pork on special and little Mr 8yo ordered the chicken nuggets. The nuggets were ok but the chips were a bit on the under cooked side of things. My Blue Cod tasted as if it had been in a freezer for 9 months, microwave defrosted and then deep fried. Dry as old leather. As for the roast Pork let's just say that it was inedible, dry, stringy and tasteless. On leaving we were charged for everything, even after voicing our concerns. Needless to say we will never be back.

Comfortable and spacious. Good comfortable beds, room to spread out and put your bags places, good cooktop (maybe induction), nice sized drinking glasses! (I don’t like the tiny glasses motels often have), good sized tv that swivels, new heat pump that works well, blackout blinds that have a separate sheer curtain for privacy. Got its own well priced family restaurant which I didn’t try.
