Great location, friendly, helpful Staff,

Very welcoming staff, steep driveway but were able to get parking which was great; location was great to walk into town, to visit museums and sight see and some fab eating places and cafes close by. The room was clean and roomy enough and had a kitchenette; the bed was a bit too soft and saggy…our only complaint really. We would definitely stay here again.

Staff were excellent when we stayed in November 2024, but new owners taking over from December 2024 so can't comment on the future. Rooms not sound proofed at all, so can hear people talking loudly on the street and other guests going up/down stairs, etc. Luckily Dunedin closes early so no noise late at night. Bathrooms very dated and while clean need new taps, showers, etc.
