From the minute we arrived we were made to feel very welcome by the owner. The room was big and very comfortable. It also had a washing machine and tumble dryer which was great for us as we had been travelling around the South Island for a week and had a caseful of dirty clothes! Highly recommended.

Beautiful arts and crafts old house, with easy parking. Large, well appointed room with a terrace and views.
Lovely breakfast and helpful staff. Wish we could have stayed for longer.

Fantastic hotel. Beautiful rooms, lovely staff. Could not ask for more. Be aware if you are on the front of the hotel, there is some noise from the street, but this did not spoil our stay in any way. Easy 5 stars.

We loved everything apart from we never met any of the owners or staff. When we arrived, a note told us which apartment we were in & the key was in the door. No one checked to verify who we were throughout the whole weekend & no one bothered to check us out- we had to just leave the key in the door. Other minor point- we didn't like the wooden slats which let lots of light in compared to curtains.

Great staff, excellent location. Had a few difficulties with room which were resolved by the attentive staff. Only negative was the limited breakfast menu which had very few of the standard breakfast items (cereals, eggs, bacon, sausages).

Room (apartment!) was clean, staff member at reception was lovely and even accomodated our last minute request to have a room with a view for our honeymoon.

Slightly quirky accommodation, but comfortable enough once you're aware. And it's half way up Baldwin Street! Our arrival instructions & welcome email arrived into my spam box while we were driving to the accommodation - not the fault of the proprietor, but made our arrival tricky...

A great stay with some really helpful staff on reception. Room brand new and well kept. Great location with a short walk into town.
The room as advertised didn’t have air con, yet there was a disabled unit in the room, which was confusing. Would’ve hoped on a hot day when checking in the window might’ve been left open with blind closed, but unfortunately not so walked into 26degree heat!
Common rooms good as had air con, but tv didn’t work. Extra touch of provided tea, coffee and milk much...

Friendly, efficient, greeting. Apartment was spacious, with separate bedroom, well equipped and spotlessly clean. Good location within easy walking distance of the city centre. Excellent value. We hope all our accommodation is as good as we travel round South Island.
