The location is excellent - walking distance to the town centre and dining spots. The reception was very friendly as was the cleaning staff. Our room was upstairs and the stairs were narrow with very poor lighting at night time. Wifi was weak and limited (just enough for our purposes). The interior lighting was limited and weak. I would describe this place more along the lines of a boarding house, rather than the fancy sounding 'lodge'.

The locatIon was handy to the city but I did not like the traffic noise. I also felt that there could have been a folder or booklet of attractions and restaurants in the area.

Amazing for the price! Super clean and the owners are super lovely! Nice and close to town so super convenient to be able to walk everywhere! It was a bit hot in the room a fan would have been ideal but we just kept the windows open and it seemed to do the trick! Would most definitely stay again!

Authentieke lodge op een goede locatie

Eigenaresse is afkomstig uit Ierland en heeft een vlotte babbel en is tegelijkertijd informatief Mooie authentieke lodge in Britse stijl. Dichtbij het centrum en nog dichter bij de rivier. Tevens ben je dichtbij highway 6. Gemakkelijk om weer verder te reizen richting Picton of Greymouth.
