Fantastic location! Clean, comfortable, friendly staff. The all-wood building creaks a lot, so be prepared for a few bumps in the night!

Our stay was excellent. Great location, self contained room with fully stocked mini kitchenette. On reading other reviews, some people must go out of their way to find faults. Wanaka is a very lovely part of the South Island. Recommend.

Although moderately clean, the room was quite run down. The drapes were falling off the rod and the sofa appeared worn and dirty. It's right next to a busy road so the sound of traffic could keep one up all night. The bed was comfortable and the location is convenient.
