Very nice little apartment for a couple of nights in Ohakune. The room and amenities were super clean and the staff were really friendly. Our only drawback was that the bed was a bit soft for our liking, but you can't please everyone all the time.

We had a good night’s rest in this facility. We also enjoyed using the heated outdoor spa, even though we could not get the jets to work. The bathtub looked a bit well used but the shower was great. For the money paid and the ease of access by car, this property worked well.

Small hotel just outside of town which means one needs to drive into town for restaurants and other needs. The room was spacious and basic - nothing fancy but was clean and met our needs. Bed was comfortable enough and towels fine.
