We phoned ahead as were going to arrive late. Had heater turned on for us and offered milk for the fridge. Were no issues. Tidy, clean, comfortable and warm. Just what we needed.

Dunedin Trip
Amazing hosts along with their cute wee dog Mac. The motel is in a good location to walk into town or to the botanic gardens. The room had everything we needed and was really clean.
