Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Room itself was ok, clean. Very narrow and steep stairway to upper bedrooms. Walls super thin. Other guests noise penetrated easily. Biggest downer was over pricing. Not good value for the $$$. Place is old and needs a full upgrade. Spa bath was nice and the view over the lake was good.
Property was up to standard. Little noisy but to be expected near main road. Small issue with water but resolved and made it up by giving us a late checkout.
Surprisingly large dbl story unit with view of Lake Tahoe. Largest twin room we had on our drive from aukland to Queenstown. Very refreshing to have all the space.
Nice enough room, though you could hear noise through the walls at times..
Unit was slightly tired around the edges, with the odd edge showing bare mdf where paint had rubbed off
Enjoyed the spa bath, and the good sized bed
