Helpful staff who helped with transport to Nelson Airport. An inexpensive night's stay - the pool is quite small and is near a busy road but I suppose that's not surprising at the price point!

The owner was very friendly, showed us grapevines they had grown outside the room and invited us to take some grapes with us when we left (very tasty). There was a lot of road noise until after dark as we were just off a main road, but the property was nice and well appointed. I booked online and apparently the room with 2 beds did not translate well but they immediately made up an extra bed for me, no trouble. Did not try the pool but it was open

Maintenance items never worry us, but this place was discussing dirty, never have. I seen such a place - unclean toilet, stains everywhere. Like it’s hasn’t been cleaned in years. Highly recommend to avoid

Many thanks 👍

Needs a good upgrade but a good cheap price and nice owners.
Although it was relatively cheap, it was not cheap enough for the condition of the room, marks and damage on the walls, the bed should have been disposed of years ago, the skirting boards needed cleaning, the light switch's were very dirty. having said that the hosts were spectacular and very accommodating,

I suppose the bed was confortabel. Kitchen with stove and microwave and full cutlery, pots and pans included. Shower was ok. Toilet very small due to the slidingdoor, that can't be propperly closed, slotting in between the toilet and the wall. Old building anything plastic is dried out and completely turned yellow and moldy.
The place was not clean; the carpets had stains, tge eindows finger marks, the tea toweol has stains and hair, the cabinets dusty. The curtains had spots allowing the light to come through.
We understand that a place can be dated, but no excuse for it not being clean

It's not the Ritz, but value for the price and more than adequate. A little dated, but reflects in what you pay. Operators were friendly. Traffic could be a little noisy at times.
