I stumbled across this accommodation on Wotif and was impressed with the price enough to check it out. This appears to be accommodation for students mainly but
i didnt find that a problem. The room was small, had everything i needed, was clean, the service great, the location very close to town (about a 5 minute walk if you wandered through the campus), I didnt have any noise problems re the students, it appears to be quite new. I really appreciated being given the coins and the wash powder for the laundry which was conveniently located right next to my room, I'm not sure if that is the norm but it was an unexpected bonus i thought since you normally expect to pay extra to do your laundry. Shower lovely, bed comfortable. Since I am mainly travelling the south island and staying in backpacker hostels, i thought this was a nice step up (when you just feel like having your own space!!!) without having to pay a fortune - basically its a mini hotel, but when i say mini, i dont mean i ever felt crammed! There was enough room for your needs. I would definitely stay here again. Oh i even ran into the cleaner up the street (although i actually think she was the owner of the complex) and she was very helpful because I was trying to locate the post office!
