Easy check in and good to be able to reserve a carpark in advance to avoid walking up a steep drive. Bedroom was on second floor with 2 showers, laundry and 2 toilets available to use with a kitchen and lounge downstairs. It was good to have mini kitchen facilities in the room with a fridge. Bed was comfortable and it was quiet.

I am a Chinese tour guide living in New Zealand, and I can say that this is the cleanest and most thoughtful hotel I have ever stayed in, especially the cleanliness and tidiness of the bedding, which touches me, and the apples prepared by the kitchen for everyone, which is so thoughtful. Highly recommend staying at 123. Mao
