Alpine Glacier Motel

Alpine Glacier Motel

10/10 Excellent
"Great little one night stay in heart of Franz Josef. Man at check in was so happy and friendly that I left there smiling. Our room was basic but had everything we needed. Beds weren’t the most comfy but pillows were excellent. Laundry on site at $4 for wash and $4 for dryer was very convenient. Walking distance to everything. Free wifi worked great."
