한적하고 조용한 위치의 깔끔한 숙소 추천
객실은 비교적 좁은 편이지만, 주방과 욕실은 깨끗하고 사용하기 편리합니다. 침구류는 깨끗하게 정리되어 있었고 객실의 전반적인 관리 또한 훌륭했습니다. 특히, 숙소의 위치가 조용하고 한적한 주택 지역이라 편안한 휴식이 가능하고, 집 밖에서 바로 별도 볼 수 있습니다. 유일한 단점은 객실이 다소 협소하는 점입니다. 그 외 모든 점이 완벽합니다.

Misleading pictures on the listing and title
The listing is very misleading.
The property name is “one bedroom suite” and the picture shows one bedroom and it also has full size kitchen and laundry.
However it is actually a studio with a small kitchenette with no laundry.
I’m really disappointed by the misinformation

Beautiful room, but no view
We were very impressed with the room and how nice it was but can't help but feel misled by the pictures in the original post. There are a lot of new developments in the area so the pictures shown on the listing are not the view you will get. I'm not sure if any of the rooms have that view. We booked this place solely on hoping for some mountain views, but instead we were looking at another unit. Also went out to look at the stars but all of the motion lights kept turning on so we had to walk quite a ways away from the property. Again this place could sell itself on how nice it is and we would stay again but I hope they can update the photos so no one else is surprised. Thanks for a great stay anyway.

This is a busy location with people arriving at all hours - the units themselves are efficient however there seems to be minimal sound proofing from people going about there activities -
People smoking outside was so intense they mights as well have been in our room
The use of lights outside during the night by the accomodation was frustrating when we had come to enjoy the night sky - perhaps with some vegetations established over time this may reduce it
While the unit has all you need there needs to be some attention by the cleaning crew - pots need screws tightened on handles and the the shower trim inside and grout on tiles in shower were pourly managed by the cleaners the orange mould could be rubbed off with toilet paper and this whole base of the shower and panels were needing some attention - the wet floor drain also emits an odor. When you are in a small space it’s hard to get away from.

The property was clean and had basic amenities. However, it is on the smaller side making it not as comfortable as other accommodations. The location is okay, but a car is needed to access the area.

Lovely wee gem in Tekapo
Even though it was a brief overnight stay with an early start in the morning I was very impressed with the property. There was just one wee housekeeping issue of finding a few hairs but apart from that the property is clean & the room was comfortable. Excellent location & quiet. Will use again as I often stop over in Tekapo. Thank you

Tiny cabin in Lake Tekapo.
Good location. Note room was very tiny suits solo traveller for work abd attached to 3 other cabins. View was builders rubbush site and looking directly into another house could see some mountains out of window which was gorgeous. Clean with lots of cooking utensils .Just to note .Shower is also not designed for a small to medium sized person
