The microwave was located much too high for me to use unless I climbed on a chair which I didn't do. Washing dishes in the newly renovated bathroom sink was something that was hard to do so we ate out.

The location was amazing, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was very good.

the size of the room is on the smaller side and it gets stuffy during the day.

the location of the property is very nice.

A cloth to wipe down benches would have been handy. Also there were no tissues provided.

It was quiet and peaceful as there were only a few studios. It had a great outlook of the mountains. The 11.00 am check out time meant we weren’t rushed. We were able to check in early and the host was quick to reply and gave very clear directions and instructions.

Because of isolation, breakfast food would’ve been nice.

A beautiful rural setting. Just gorgeous. Helpful owners. We were the only guests.

no milk provided made the coffee and tea useless. also sensor light stays on for quite a while and shined into bedroom which was annoying when trying to sleep

Great easy self check-in. fantastic clear instructions from host. very tidy and comfortable room

Hooks on the wall with no pictures! Confusing instructions about the heater! A hair in my coffee mug!

That it was out of town and in the country!

No signage outside the property to indicate where it was, alternatively arrival instructions could have said it was the first driveway on the left. The outlook from the property is onto a grassed area with trees and shrubs beyond. These completely obscured the views of the mountains and snow beyond. A reduction in height would improve this significantly.

Self contained studio in a quiet setting, a short drive from town. Comfortable bed, good shower and well equipped. Glenorchy was lovely, although sad to see a few businesses no longer operating.

We Weren’t expected, phone contact was owners in uk not answering luckily only other guest had local number so got in fairly quickly. No aircon as was too hot

Value for money

The kitchenette is tiny and using the bathroom sink for washing up was ok,but not the best. Also understand the balance between protection from wind and views, but is only just a view of the mountains!

Beautiful room, comfy bed. Good location. Easy check in. All great thank you

lack of a kitchen sink a disadvantage

Idyllic location, very peaceful

The view is wonderful, but could be so much better if the hedge trees were trimmed by half the height, so you can see more of the mountains. Needs fly screens on the door, so you can enjoy the breeze without the sandflies.

Modern, clean and well equipped room.

This is a small place with small rooms but the location is lovely, there is outdoor space provided and it was exactly as I expected. Met our needs perfectly and all aspects of the rental were clear.

Lack of AC. Not so comfy at night in the summer

Everything except the lack of AC.

However, there is nowhere to wash the dishes or get water except in the bathroom. Compact studio.

Lovely peaceful spot with beautiful mountain views. Good cooking facilities and range of dishes and utensils. Comfortable bed and good shower in a good sized bathroom. Nice outdoor courtyard with table and chairs.

Nothing.

The beautiful location in nature.

Lack of access to a kitchen sink - it's inconvenient and a bit unhygienic to use the bathroom vanity for washing dishes. Also, it would be helpful if the photos made it easier to identify which of the units is which.

Lovely rural location and outlook. Clean and tidy. Nice big bed. Great and helpful communication.

The bathroom sink didn't drain properly. Given that there were cooking facilities and this was the only sink to wash dishes in, it wasn't easy to clean up. The room was clean, but there were cobwebs in the bathroom. The kitchen area was small with very little bench space.. Overall, not worth the money it cost to stay there.

Quiet rural location.

Not a kitchenette as such. No sink so camping style wash ups or washing in bathroom sink which wasn’t that great. And the lack of air con in the room was not great. Room was very hot at night.

Lovely spot and great views

Stayed in February 2025

A bit hot in the day since there's only a small fan in the room and we have to open the window and door to ventilate which attracts the flies and moths into the room.Luckily they don't bite.

Incredible mountain view especially on sunny day,very quiet and a good place to watch stars.We even captured the Aurora! The host sent email several days ahead which is very helpful for us to plan for the stay and the self check in was very smooth. Stove,roaster and kettle make it easy to cook.

Over priced, over sold. And underwhelming. A very small, one room unit, no comfy chairs, kitchenette = fridge, microwave, toaster, kettle and hot plate... not set up for proper meals. Mismatch of cups and glasses... yeah KMart... but not good enough! No chopping boards. You have have to wash and prepare food and do dishes in the bathroom sink... which had a gunk ring around the plug hole. Two picture hooks on the wall with nothing on them. Panel heater removed... holes and screws in wall just sitting there. Hairs and dust on bathroom floor... sink a bit gungy. Bed comfy. Deck nice but nothing to sit on... garden overgrown and untidy. For $240/night this is a rip off... $140 per night, maybe. Feel ripped off, this is like a basic cabin in a camping ground. A cash cow that gives NZ a bad name!!

Location Good. Nice and quiet.
