This is a very basic motel, everything was clean and the people at the reception were very nice and helpful, but the mattress was very uncomfortable and all the room very dark and unappealing.

Stay here

It was great- the owners are lovely and incredibly accommodating and helpful. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable. The location was excellent for access to Franz Josef activities and restaurants. It’s a five minute walk to the town center, if that. Highly recommend a stay here.

Good choice in FJ

Nice place to stay. Kitchen is well-equipped but a little bit small (but still suitable to cook a simple dinner). Premise is nice, owners are very nice as well.

Great stay, super easy to load luggage in and out as you can back right up to sliding door. Walkable to shops and restaurants, beds were comfy, tv’s a tad small but did the job.

Nice large room and a convenient location. Owners were extremely friendly and helpful with suggestions for anything you need. Easy walk to everything in Franz Joseph. Bed was a little soft for our liking, but overall a really great place to stay.

We had a great stay here. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The highlight of the stay were the managers, Graham and Sheryl, who told us about a partial road closure and helped us plan our trip south. They also suggested which walks to do around the area, and gave us tips about dining in town. Highly recommend a stay here.
