Heater hanging out of the wall. Freezing cold windows open when we arrived. Had to go to office and get a portable heater 🙄. Lamp broken. Stained carpets. And this place go a 4.5 review. Seriously
It was a nice hotel and affordable. The sliding glass door on the ground floor was a little uncomfortable as people could see in even with the blinds. Otherwise it was a nice place.
The room was classed as Deluxe/Honeymoon Room certainly wouldn’t say that myself. The bathroom window had a hole from rot, the tap for the shower inside down and around the window looks like could be rot with mould on the window.
I know the above sounds awful, but more positives than negative - the bed was comfy as, we had a wee couch to sit on for watching tv or reading. A little table for eating if you don’t dine at one of the fabulous eateries in Akaroa. The room was tidy and clean and comfortable. Will certainly stay there again.
Very nice place to stay. Great location. Highly recommended.

Ok for a night but would.look for somewhere else if staying longer
No air con which in the heat was unbearable
Did have a fan which we used to sleep at night but it has limited effect
Property was an older style hotel but good and easily walkable to the center of town, Parking was a bit tight,

No problems with cleanliness. Some of the fittings in the unit were in need of repair - particularly a faulty electric plug which did not comply with electrical regulations

The stay and accommodation was good, a little tired, the room could do with having A bit of a spruce up and the Venetian blinds needed replacing. Sky wasn’t working and the tv wasn’t user friendly so couldn’t use other than Netflix. Definitely needed aircon in the heat and there wasn’t any.
Staff were very friendly and the stay was overall pretty good and comfortable. Thank you.
The room was clean and spacious. Thè reception at checkin was a simple fill out the form and take the key. During the night there was a noicy party arriving, woke everyone up, not the hotels fault but made for a short nights sleep.

Shower was broken - very disappointing. I hope it has been fixed for future guests.
No maps of the area were available at checkin and little information was available on local activities. I would have liked an Akaroa street map and information on the Giant's Garden, the museum and harbour cruises. But none of this was available.

Nice place--very convenient location. Room wasn't fully serviced when we arrived.
Fantastic place to stay, staff Fantastic, we enjoyed the closeness to many areas wharf, Eateries, also must mention the best fish and chip shop Kaimoana directly accross the road there Battered Mussels are huge and delicious, will Definitely be staying again.
Sorry guys but your unit was below standard. Yes great location and was clean but basic stuff like cupboard in front of microwave broken and had to hold door up when used, shower rail stuck high, jug wont turn off automatically, heating below par for early winter stay as unit got cold during the night, toilet seat lid cracked. Easy stuff to fix but suspect has been like that for a while.
