“OK for a short stay”
The location was convenient for the center of Hokitika, but the stairs to the upper room and the room’s size were smaller than expected.

A comfy bed and a powerful shower made for a pleasant night, but the room felt a bit cramped.

The bed was comfortable, and I paid $7 for the washing machine and dryer; the basic kitchenette was fine, and the shower worked great. The staff were friendly, and overall it was a nice overnight stay. Thanks 😊. The room was a little small.

Being close to everything we wanted to see was a plus, but it was hot in September even with the heater off, so a larger fan would have helped keep the place from feeling stuffy. We couldn’t open the windows because of sandflies, and having screens might have improved things.

The location was great, within walking distance to town and the beach, and the place was very clean and warm. The bed was good. The lighting was dim; there were many light fittings but none were strong enough, making it hard to read at night. Also, the TV was positioned inconveniently for viewing from the bed.
