Especially for a solo traveller it was a fantastic stay. It was a budget option but rather than staying in a hostel dorm room I had my own space which I very much appreciated. Especially after a busy day you just want to relax on your own. Sharing the bathroom on the floor was not a big deal at all, it was clean and close. Staff were all friendly and the location was great. Only a short walk from the city but also with a car park to use - again, another massive advantage compared to a hostel.

We had the ensuite room which was spacious and spotless with a great view. Bed was very comfortable with crisp sheets. Common areas are shared, and breakfast is communal. Well hosted. Ideal location in terms of being out of busy Queenstown. Location is a suburban area with a fabulous expansive view.
