The room was very basic and overpriced.

When we arrived, the bathroom door wouldn’t shut—it wouldn’t even fit into the frame. I spoke to reception, and they explained that a recent flood had expanded the wooden frame and it was still waiting to be fixed. It wasn’t a huge issue for us as a couple, but we wish we had been told about it beforehand.

A wonderful spot to stay, with a crew that was very accommodating and friendly. The location in Kaikoura was perfect for exploring the beautiful area.
