Convenient location to stay for a night before the glacier hike the next day. Love their password lock, making it easy. All kitchen utensils and bathroom amenities are provided.

Not much you can expect from a motel practically in the middle of nowhere. There was everything you needed for a quick stay.

The room is quite big and clean overall. There is a kitchen dining table! You can take pictures of the Milky Way directly outside the room at night! The front desk staff is very nice and helped me book a hike on the Fox Glacier! This is the back door entrance to the hotel. I didn't take a picture of the room.

The surroundings are quiet. There is a small kitchen for cooking. It is very close to Lake Matheson and you can see the snow-capped mountains.
It would be perfect if the hygiene could be better
The price is relatively high and you need to pay to use the public laundry.

It was already 6pm when I checked in, and no one was there to greet me. I got my room number from the note on the glass, and was told that the key was in the room. When I left, I just had to turn off the power and heating and leave the key. It was a very Buddhist management.
The room facilities were simple, and the bathroom curtain was a bit dirty and old.
It wasn't warm enough to sleep at night.

The facilities in the room are average and old. It is very convenient to go to Lake Matheson and the glacier, but unfortunately the weather was bad, so I couldn't see the reflection of the lake or the glacier clearly.
