Was centrally located. Despite being by a very busy road, rooms were quiet enough to get some sleep. Beds were comfortable and having a nice bath in each room was a bonus. Good little lounge space for families in our unit. Great to be able to...

This is a wonderful place to stay in Timaru. The tools are spacious and clean, the bed is comfortable and the shower hot and strong, and the view is terrific. We were sorry that we hadn’t booked a longer stay.
