Stopped for one night and the motel was exactly what we needed. Clean, peaceful location and onsite free parking right in front of the room which was convenient. Funny smell in the room coming from the cupboards in the kitchenette, couldn't put our finger on it as they weren't dirty (likely just old/musty).

Wonderful 3 bedroom self contained unit with everything you need to stay for a couple of days. Warm bedding with electric blankets for the main bedroom. Laundry facilities also available on site. Conveniently located to Twizel if you want to do any stargazing tours (about 20 mins one way).
