it’s perfectly located right on the waterfront, making it easy to access the town and tour companies for trips to Milford Sound. The kitchen facilities were superb and always kept clean, and the common areas offered stunning views of the lake. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the bathrooms were spotless, which was a big plus for me.
