The property was convenient and the balcony was great. The only downside was staying in Unit 14, there was a security light that came on and off all night from an adjoining property. The glass door needs blockout.

The walls were a bit thin, allowing noises from the next door rooms to be clearly heard. Other than that, the room was clean, location great and checkin was easy.

Lovely little room right in Tekapo Village near all the restaurants and shops and the lakefront. Was easy to go down to the lakefront at night to look at the stars.

The property is very central which does mean its was a bit noisy. The accomodation was adequate and clean. There is no daily clean unless you ask which we found a bit odd as we have been all around NZ and it was the first stop that didnt include it. Nice view (just) from balcony.
