    The location is insane, Lake Tekapo right outside the window. We stayed in a 4 bed dorm as we were a party of 3. The room is small and basic but perfect for what we needed.

    Lake Tekapo is a nice place, the accommodation in this area is relatively expensive. The room is same as picture, nice view. There is a shared kitchen.

    The staff was friendly, bathrooms were clean and the rooms, despite being a bit small, were extremely comfortable and with a very nice view of the lake. The beds were extremely comfortable.
