Compared of the price I paid, I think it was good. The location is excellent. The room is spacious, the commons kitchen was great. Only the shared shower appeared old and not clean. So I decided not shower that night because I had showered in the morning , and I am going to have a private shower the coming night.
Loved staying here, its a shame it was only one night, all areas are clean and tidy, kitchen is fully equipped, there are common warm areas and even some furry friends

Lake Tekapo stay
It was ok for a short stay. Would have been better if the kitchen was in the same building.
