The only things we liked about this place was the view, the beds, the cost of the value of the property & having a dryer & washing machine onsite. It was a fair way away for us to get to our room, especially for our elderly. The host were good & helped with carrying our gear to the room. On our way there we noticed that the roof was leaking. Our room service was late everyday we were there, having to ring & ask for things to be topped up. However, it was somewhat close to the cbd so that was good.

Not what I expected from the pictures online but definitely a great facility. Great staff who are friendly. Very calm guests who are quiet, tidy and respectful. Right in the center of the town so it is easy to walk everywhere. Free parking was also a perk.

Our room was excellent with little balcony overlooking the Queenstown gondola. Reception & lounge needs a little bit of an upgrade but for a few nights stay it was great. New bypass being dug in front of the hotel but no major problems. Short walk down a very steep hill to get to town no problem going down maybe a problem for some coming back up

I stayed at this property for 2nd time. But, this time stay is not what I expected. Its not the same as 1st time. This propery needs upgrades. Queen Mattress is too soft and was given 1 pilow each only. No Microwave. Bath room fan is too noisy. Fridge is too old, noisy and icy in the freezer. Carpet needs to be replaced. However, it is reasonable clean and very convenient/walkable distance to shops/Cafes/Queenstown city.

Did the job. But our room was absolutely tiny for 2 people. The bathrooms could’ve been cleaner. For someone who just needs somewhere to sleep then it’s perfect. More cooking facilities are needed, we had to buy our own

Great value for the price. Clean and simple - perfect for our family of 4 with teenagers. A comfortable deck and common area with extra refrigerators, toaster, electric skillet do you can prepare simple meals. Perfect for walking into town and tons of dining and shopping. But it is a steep hilly walk.

The construction is going on and very unpleasant, no body to help after 6pm. The room is cold and none of the heaters is working. Very small room.

Stayed here for one night because we couldn't book the place we previously stayed at. Construction right in front of the entrance to the place was an inconvenience but luckily you can walk to anywhere in Queenstown. Rooms are dormitory style with all the beds in the main room. No separate living space. Place is safe and in a nice area with many hotels and restaurants nearby.

Stayed here for a few nights with a group sharing one room with 3 beds. The price isn’t cheap but cheaper than alternatives. The room was comfortable, quiet and well maintained (cleaned each day). Decent bathroom with a nice shower. The place was quiet at night (the other rooms behaved themselves), staff were approachable and helpful. There weren’t many parking spots (roughly 7) although you can park on a nearby street. It’s also short walk (~12mins) to centre of queenstown.

Queenstown was in the middle of a ban on drinkimg h20 but neber supplied at least 1 complementary bottle They told us to boil the water in a microwave in the dirty disgusting kitchen. A shared bathroom and a room so small we couldn't open both our suitcases at the same time. Left next morning. I didn't care that we lost a nights rent! Don't let their adds fool you about this lace like i did. Would not recommend it to anyone.

Although just one night. A short walk down the hill to the town. The roadworks and copious cones made access confusing. Once there quiet, pleasant surroundings. Will return, and for longer this time

Misrepresented but OK
Although essentially tidy and well-located, the website descriptions were very misleading. Our two-bedroom with kitchen facilities was a one-bedroom with a microwave and a bathroom for the sink. We witnessed two other groups of travellers having to discuss their simar shock upon arrival. This meant our family of four were cramped in a small space unexpectedly, without means to cook for ourselves. Multiple fittings were loose (several shelves and a seat designed for people which collapsed when a suitcase was placed on it). There was, however, excellent wifi, comfortable beds and great water pressure in the shower.
