    Ours was a fairly standard motel room looking over a carpark/gravel road to beautiful Lake Tekapo. Quite comfortable and the BBQ across the car park had a great view. Well presented in an older-style way.

    The Godley is in a great location right by the lake and facilities. There is ample free parking and the room was spacious and had what we needed for a one night stay.

    We had a 2 bedroom motel room and the facilities were great for a 2 night stay. It was close to the town centre and the stargazing /hot pools. We had a lovely view of the lake.

    Great position with the lake behind the motel. Walking distance to everywhere in the small village not far from the Church. Comfortable bed and quiet room.

    Convenient location close to town. About a 20 min walk to the center of town, 5 min to the lake. Air conditioning available although did take some time to cool the room given the full glass windows and intense sun of New Zealand. The host is very easy to communicate with and friendly. There was free parking. The room was spacious and clean.

    Location was great. But it was really just a hotel room in the ground floor of a house, not the motel style room with breakfast bar and more we had grown to expect in New Zealand.

    The location was perfect, we could see the bay outside the window. The bathroom was great, really spacious with a large shower, just what we needed after a long day on the road.
