A lovely area and nice and quiet with friendly staff.

10/10 Exceptional

Very quiet and convenient to Franz Josef Glacier. Not the most updated place but the facilities are nice and the rooms are generously sized.
Richard, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

A motel that needs investment.
An empty motel in peak season was the first warning. Initial appearance on entering the room was good. A spacious well appointed bedroom kitchenette with en-suite bathroom. Lack of air conditioning. The mattress was so soft it made sleep uncomfortable.A tiny shower cubicle and a bathroom abundant in moths and black fly made me reticent to use it. We ran out of toilet paper which was so thin that we bought our own. A very friendly owner doesn’t compensate for an experience I would not like to replicate.
Trevor, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very kind people, nice space. Having the kitchenette was a plus.
Chris, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very easy check in and check out instructions as per my conversation with the manager the previous day. It's an amazing location with a wonderful view of the snow topped mountains.
Tony, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely older property. Clean and tidy. Nice view of the mountains. Easy check in and out.
Ann, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s not 5 star, but the staff was great. The place quiet and clean. The sleep was comfortable. It’s exactly what a good motel should be.
Cindy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

No glacier view but nice big room.
Huge room with kitchen and large bathroom. Very quite and peaceful. Comfy bed and fully equipped kitchen. The only downside is the wifi was very slow.
William, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice and quiet and the owners were friendly and helpful. A bit out of town and the internet signal was a bit poor. Room was clean and comfortable.
Murry, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The last resort
Upon arrive the place looked derelict. The lawns and gardens were overgrown and in need of mowing and weeding. Checkin consisted of a girl running out and telling us there was a key in the door. The rooms were spacious and the bathroom has been renovated. The furniture looked like it was leftover from the second hand shop. The TV remote didn't work and heating is only a small space heater. There is no houskeeping and the office is only open in the afternoon. It is more than 2 minutes to town.
Susanne, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Tidy unit, well equiped kitchen and great shower pressure. The most affordable stay I could find in Franz. Wifi was very weak at number 9 (too far from the modem is my guess) - needs a booster. Bed is super soft, so more suitable for tiny humans.
Stephen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Super clean and comfortable. Amazing view. Only issue was very soft mattress.
Paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was a convenient location with great views. The parking was right outside the room. The Wifi was not good.
SHAHZAD, 1-night trip

Mitchell, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The managers are friendly. It’s a no frills accommodation and has everything you need. Bathroom has been refurbished and everything was clean. Kitchenette had everything you needed to cook simple meals. Had a small heater which did the job. Thank you
