It's a five-minute walk from the Church of the Good Shepherd. The stars are indeed very clear. It's suitable for taking pictures. It's very safe around. I found that all the people taking pictures were Chinese. It may be because it's rare to see stars and the Milky Way in domestic cities. The hotel has complete facilities and is located on a commercial street.

The hotel is very close to the Church of the Good Shepherd in Lake Tekapo. It was very convenient for participating in stargazing activities at night. I contacted the car for pick-up. The hotel room is not big, but the stay is okay.

We feel that it is not good. The room is crowded and the breakfast is very average. The price/performance ratio is not high.

This bed is too soft. If a person weighs 150 pounds, he probably won't be able to get up from it. But the location of the hotel is better. It's right by the lake. It's a 10-minute walk to the Church of the Good Shepherd and a 10-minute walk to the supermarket. There's a pizza shop next to it that's delicious. You must come out to see the Milky Way at night. It's so shocking.

To be precise, it's more like a motel. I believe that many people are passing through and only stay for one night, so the price of this hotel is very suitable. The old facilities and equipment are not suitable for vacation. Parking is free at the door. My room has three beds, which are not wide and very soft. Although the quality is not high, maybe because I was tired, the stay was quite comfortable. The hot water is hot and plentiful. The area is not large, and there is nowhere to put your feet after opening the box. There is heating, so when you come back after watching the starry sky at night, you are not cold at all. Just off the main road, easy to find. I forgot to tell the front desk that I would be late, so they left my key outside the door and gave me a room map, which was very considerate. This is the first motel I've stayed in in New Zealand and it was a good experience.

The room was very good, clean and tidy. The balcony was right next to the swimming pool and the Church of the Good Shepherd was just a few hundred meters away. It was very convenient. There are Japanese food, pizza, supermarkets nearby... and you can directly see the starry sky at night!
