Surprised at the comfort and huge space. Compared to most other budget accommodation hotels, this was rare find. Quiet, comfortable and well equipped. The building is of an older character, but that is not a negative. .

This small hotel was located just a few blocks off the main drive into Invercargill. It was a recently renovated apartment unit. Our suite had been occupied only four times previously. There were three bedrooms, a large bathroom, a kitchen with full size fridge, stove and utensils, living room and laundry room with a combo washer/dryer. The renovation was great quality workmanship. This was a superb value accommodation and I would recommend it highly for a lengthy stay for families or friends.

Great Place to stay in Invercargill!

We loved this place! It is off the 'beaten path' on a nice residential street with a very good restaurant and bar a two block walk away. It was quite, roomy, clean and comfortable. Plus, they had Netflix! Not sure that it gets any better than that. Recommend it highly
