The location is the best thing about this hotel. We stayed for 2 days before the Dunedin Marathon which the hotel sponsors but the staff members and manager weren't very runners friendly. We asked for a late checkout so we could come back and have a quick shower and they offered 11.30am or 12 or 12.30 and then 1.00pm checkout after we insisted several times but with an extra charge of $20. They said something like "imagine if all the runners asked for a late checkout..." There were zero other runners in the lobby when we left at 5.25am in the morning! So even if the hotel and the room were okay, a bit outdated but clean, we will not return.
