    A bedside table should be installed for ease, and a side light rather than having the big lights

    Not sure why this property only has a pleasant score. The unit was very clean, large, kitchenette was very well equipped with a microwave and toaster as well. Location perfect, reception lovely.

    Disappointed there was no iron or ironing board especially when I paid $161 per night and was there 2 nights. Couldn't park outside my room at all and had to park some distance and go back and forth unloading/loading up car.

    Room was very clean and comfortable; and quiet.

    There was only one towel rail in a unit capable of accommodating three guests. There was enough wall space in the bathroom to hang three towels. Not a difficult problem to fix. There was no soap capsules for the dishwasher or milk supplied.

    Comfortable beds. Reasonably well appointed, good fridge freezer and dishwasher. A older motel unit but refurbished with a modern kitchen and bathroom. Good air conditioner which worked well when required.

    The jug leaked but I forgot to advise reception as I’m sure they would’ve replaced it

    Location to the event I was attending, value for money. Kitchenette was great though not used fully by us. Amazing shower pressure! Plenty of towels etc provided.

    The carpet could do with being cleaned as it looks like someone has dripped something all over it and the glass table and bathroom door could do with a good clean as there were dark hand prints on the bathroom door and the glass table was a bit marked

    Nice and spacious accommodation also nicely redecorated

    The room we were originally assigned hadn’t been cleaned, bed unmade and previous occupants wet towels and rubbish still there. The second room was clean and comfortable, however coffee mugs were missing.

    The room we were finally given was clean, tidy and comfortable. Located right next to a restaurant

    Couple of minor things need fixed. Curtain in corner on room had come off its runners and wouldnt close properly which means when the lights are on people can see in when walking past. Its missing the hooks so hubby couldnt hang it back up again. Also the blind above sink is broken so doesn't open or close. Makes the room too dark. Also doesn't quite cover the window so a curtain there would provide more privacy, stop the street light glaring in through them too considering it faces the street.

    Location was good. Unit is a good size. Bathroom was great. Bed and pillows were comfy.

    A little bit basic and in need of a bit of TLC and updating, particularly the curtains that were hanging off the rail. The double bed was practically on the floor, not good for getting out of and springing into action. Didn't bother with breakfast. it seemed a bit of a chore to organise . No hairdryer in room

    Close to the Penguins at Oamaru
