Karen
I always stay here when I’m in Dunedin. Spacious, clean rooms and the nicest people you’ll ever meet. The rooms are always cozy and warm on arrival during winter and the bed is comfy. Excellent places to eat within walking distance too.
The only thing I wish would be that they turn the outside lights off as I like a dark room and the light comes in about the drapes….in saying that I still love staying here.

friendly and helpful. very happy.
Sue
Very easy check in and in an ideal location. Great room at a good price. Bed a bit hard but we would stay here again!
Arina
The staff were amazingly helpful.
The property itself is a bit old. The room was next to the road and it was very loud even for us that do not mind the noise. Also the window didnt have the curtain and there was no way you could cover, except we used the bath mat otherwise the light was so bright whole night.

Scott
Our room was spacious, very clean, and well appointed. Staff were friendly and helpful. The location was very central and close to restaurants.
Patricia
Very helpful and friendly manager. Clean facility with good parking
Josh
Location is great - close to University of Otago and most of the student flats, which made visiting my daughter easy. Room was spacious. Bed was comfy. Kitchenette is great. Laundry facilities are a nice perk. Only complaint is that the shower was getting pretty moldy.
Gemma
The lady at the front desk was very friendly. Beds were comfortable. We had a small dog with us and they were very pet friendly. :)
Nathalie
It was really good!
David Carey
Excellent
Asitha
Spacious room, cleanliness at its best and very supportive staff.
Deborah
I spoke to the lovely manager and she advised me that they are in the process of doing a refresh and remodel of the rooms. Overall it was just fine for one night. The shower was a bit icky. I can see that if they took the time to make a significant investment in the remodel it will pay off especially because nice properties definitely get a return for that investment in city locations
Matthew
No air conditioner. No extractor in bathroom. Old rooms. Toilet seat broken.
Bedrooms on roadside which is SH1 very noisy not double glazed so noisy all night.

nice spot for Dunedin stay , walkable into city . Dining options nearby . had rooms at front so was a bit noisy . Bathroom window you could not close as the latch was sitting on sill . Would use again but request a room in middle .
Robyn
Convenient to occasion we were attending. Clean comfortable and quiet.
Stephen

Damian
Great room
Alan
Friendly staff, very clean and so good to be able to have our dog stay too.
Lionel
Great location, great room, well equipped. Chairs need to be replaced replaced or cussion
Wendy
Very friendly and very clean. Great location.
Kurt
While dated, all your basic needs are taken care of. The entrance to the unit is a patio style glass sliding door, so you have a wide open view of the parking lot, and vice versa. The bed was comfortable. The TV included a good selection of cable channels. Within easy walking distance of the Dunedin Botanic Garden, Tuhura Otago Museum, and many restaurants.
Joy
Very friendly helpful staff. Rooms comfortable and clean
Adrian
Clean, friendly motel with everything you need for a short stay. I loved being greeted by the two friendly dogs at reception.

A good bed is so important— and I always sleep really well at this motel. And it’s a bonus to stay in the city and not pay for parking!
Ann
Par excellence! So comfortable—best bed and best host and staff!! Soooo clean!
Louis
Location is within student accommodation area.. Might be for some, but not for a family with small kids
Mark
Economical choice close to the uni
Close to Otago Uni and many places to eat. Older unit but comfortable. Shower was definitely the low point.
Rachel
Could do with a good amount of time giving room.a good refresh. Grass moss on outside windows. Bathroom needs a get a good makeover.... miss match cutlery( 2 of some things 3 of others)

Karen
I have stayed her before and will again. Spacious and warm room. Comfy bed, lovely people, great location.
Tracy
I loved my upstairs room with a view. Clean, spacious, tidy and the bed was so comfy. The best thing about this hotel is that it is pet friendly and I have two indoor-only, well-trained cats. Unfortunately, I had some young and unruly partying guests late at night in the room next door, however, the hotel management sorted them out immediately upon notification and peace was restored. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to be close to a convenient main road, and within walking distance of the Botanic Gardens, university, museum, shops cafes, restaurants and the main street of town. I strolled safely up to the scenic Octagon at night for a lovely dinner - lots of options.
Thief
The cleanliness, condition and service of the hotel were very good.
Unfortunately the lack of double glazing in the bedroom meant the all night parties across the street, made it very difficult to sleep.

Barb
We have stayed here before, and will again. Lovely staff.
Misty
Older but well kept, free assigned parking, helpful friendly staff, close to all restaurants, walk to botanical gardens (maybe not at night as there was a lot of garbage on the street that way so not sure of safety), close to university, comfy bed, traffic noise at night but stopped by 11ish.
Katrina
Great place to stay. Very friendly and helpful staff. A little noisy at times due to some student housing nearby.
Richard
Property a bit dated. Strange mounting of TV over sink area when a few jib anchors would hold it above the window. For the price, good enough.
JOHN
Main traffic drag so noisy. Limited dining around
Tony
Lovely people, pet friendly, bed was a little tired.
ROMMEL MAX
I’m generally satisfied with the service and room. Only comment is that the toilet flush is too strong that the water spills all over the floor. Being on the side of the road, it can also be very noisy.
Patrick
It’s all good. I really appreciate your attention to details!
Andrew
Friendly staff and very helpful
Aleksandar
good value for the money
Cheryl
Friendly staff and our room suied our needs perfectly. Don’t be put off by student noise. It soon quietens down, and leads to very quiet mornings! My new fav place to stay in Dunedin!
Julie
Lovely friendly & accommodating staff, cleanliness of unit and price make this motel great value in my opinion.
keep in mind it's an older property , we found parking was tight as they were full. Also Dog show in Dunedin that weekend there were many dogs staying, we had no disturbance during the night.
Location is in the student area on a busy one way, did not bother us

Great location for our journey with giod access to some local places to eat or takeaways. Breakfast available although we didn't have this. Room was small but had all you needed. Liked the touch of a small bottle of fresh milk rather than individual cartons

Allan
The staff were really nice and the rooms were clean and comfortable
Andrew
The staff were very warm, friendly and helpful. The room was very comfortable, with a great room heater, and the bed was awesome. You could tell that they cared about their customers. The only thing that I would say, and this didn’t really bother me, but may bother some people, is that the fixtures and fittings could do with some maintenance, and refurbishment.
