Spotless room, excellent amenities, great staff! A perfect two night stay!
Nice clean and tidy room with all the essentials for an extended stay. Located in walking distance to all cbd attractions and places to eat. Also, an ideal motel to use as a central base if you are looking to explore further out of Dunedin as well.
This property was close to the main centre and clean and comfortable. The Manager was friendly and helpful and there was good laundry facilities available.
This motel is fantastic, conveniently situated near both the town center and the university. The services are excellent, and while the room decor is somewhat dated, it is very spacious—our room had enough bed space for six. However, the car entry and exit are a bit narrow, so extra caution is needed if you're driving a larger vehicle.
Central Dunedin based accommodation. Large spacious room clean comfortable and peaceful. Lovely staff who were helpful and professional. Walking distance to all the local sites

There were 2 levels of service in this property. Daytime staff were excellent - went above and beyond to assist. Were friendly and helpful.
Evening staff were offhand and disinterested in a couple of issues we had.
Great location, easy access to the University, train station, and central business district
