R and R on a great location
Great stay just outside Hokitika 5mins heading south.
Cooking area was a bit spartan with old school hobs which worked ok.
Food was nice great portions of blue cod and chips with salad .
Friendly staff great location
I was not good place to stay overnight too much noise and party from the Kiwi experience tour group.The food was terrible and everything was run out when you try get something to order.I would not recommend people to stay here.
