It was nicely redecorated inside and the bathroom very near new. I was needing something to suit my disability (I am in a wheelchair) and although Wanaka was very full and busy with two major events on at the same time we were very lucky to find somewhere and should have booked a lot earlier in advance (a good recommendation for a very busy tourism destination in any summer months ). So we didn’t get a designated accessible room due to booking too late but we were able to make it work - best advice don’t wait until last minute like we did! The only thing was the driveway in and out was paved with small type pebbles (little round stones) which play havoc to wheelchair wheels!). Luckily I was able to park quite close to the back of the unit where accessibility was almost stress free. I had some portable ramps with me so was able to use those to lay across the stones to the concrete pad outside the back door. For an older motel it was nicely decorated internally - could do with lining the drawers though in the kitchen but otherwise was actually comfortable, warm and very clean.

Kitchen drawers not lined, which I see as a necessity- makes its look cleaner (as in utensil and cutlery drawers)

The room was comfortable, clean and was complete with all the necessities needed for a comfortable stay. We cooked our meals in the evening and the kitchen had all the necessities needed to cook a complete meal.... It was a bit cold when we arrived but the room heaters kept us comfortable and warm throughout the evening. We enjoyed our stay so much we extended an extra day.

TV didn't work but the wifi was strong so it was not really needed since I could access what I needed on my computer.

It was a comfortable room of good size. The beds were comfortable and the shower facilities were fine. As it was a studio apartment, there was sufficient privacy and parking was available. The staff was helpful as well.

It was just a little far from the main eating places downtown to walk. Driving there was fine but finding parking was sometimes a challenge.

The Motel is really nice. Everything is clean and spacious. The owner is exceedingly helpful and kind. Kitchen is fairly well equipped. Beds are comfortable.

While this motel is indeed great value for money considering the alternatives in Wanaka, it was still the most expensive accommodation of our whole trip through NZ.

Very friendly welcome, really helpful with suggestions of things to do. Beautifully clean accommodation with three beds so we could have one each! Really quiet, short drive into Wanaka. Perfect for our group. Good shower, cafetière for coffee in the morning, and parking right outside our apartment.

Nothing!

The staff were very friendly and the room was clean and neat.

The price was rather high for the facilities, however we recognise this was likely due to the time of year (Christmas and new years) and the festival that was in town. Overall, the stay was great.

Well-designed and beautifully presented. Very comfortable. Parking right next to the unit. Good laundry facilities on site. Very friendly welcome (thank you Mr Sevenoaks!) and complementary milk. Loved Wanaka. Bought very good evening meal from the Food Trucks in town

Great location, peaceful, quiet street with spectacular views. A very comfortable stay with plenty of room for a family of four. Easy drive into the village or a great walk around the lakefront. Full laundry was great too! They even have a drying room for ski season!

The unit was surprisingly spacious, and an interesting shape. We liked the host - she was friendly and helpful. we enjoyed having a cup of tea at the outside table in the sunshine.

We didn't notice that the TV cords were behind the curtain and thought that the TV was not working. it would have been a help if the host had shown us that. Otherwise we were really happy with our stay.
