What Guests Loved
Based on 230 reviews
Pros +
- warm, cozy, great facilities, quite even tough above pub
- Nice location, nice food, nice staff
- Really nice hostel style accommodation, close to everything
Cons -
- Could hear other guests through the walls, the room was feeling a little tired but worked for our needs.
- It’s a very cheap stay so it’s understandably basic, but the room wasn’t well cleaned, with a large dead moth on the windowsill right above the head of the bed (no headboard). The rubbish curtains also had numerous burn marks. It was hot and stuffy but the window of the room didn’t open, the the helpful member of staff didn’t know how to open it.
- Be aware there's love music on fridays so rather avoid the kingsize bed rooms on the righthand side of the staircase, as the band plays right underneath you.The mood and atmosphere was great and the party went on till late with us in the middle, even being on the 1st floor.Apart from that, we had a great stay. :)

Great location, the balcony was awesome! Great to have a kitchen. Loved having a band on later in the night!
Very clean and lovely smelling. Awesome deck to sit on in the evening. Lounge and kitchen facilities great!
It’s centrally located in Methven

What a great place in budget.Only issue is the noise from the pub but noise cancelling ear buds did the job. And the beds are too soft.Oh and while you're there their BBQ Beef burger is a must. The best I have had
The beds
Great price, clean and comfortable. Balcony is a great place to chill.
Nothing it was great
Free parking, good kitchenette. Rooms basic but had everything I needed.
Room was quite worn but ok
clean and tidy, spacious rooms, good communal area,great balconey
room above the band playing below
Over all facilities great. Food in pub excellent
I forgot noise rises, we were in a room directly over the bar. Poor planning on my part for a Thursday night. Fine for a couple, not travelling with teenagers lol
Clean, simple and value for money. Good food downstairs in the pub.
Really comfortable and clean rooms.So easy to pop down to the bar for a nice meal.Lots of spots to sit out in the sun.
comfy, clean, shared living space and kitchen facilities
small room
Super clean tidy and warm
Good location.
Very small room. No table to put anything on. No chair. Curtain hooks missing. Window wouldn't open more than 2 inches despite it being a very warm day. Noisy music from courtyard below. Window above door let in light from passage outside room all night. Very little soundproofing, heard neighbours opening and closing doors all night. One of the two bedside lamps wasn't even plugged in. Common bathroom didn't appear to be serviced while I was there.
central location, clean and comfy.
Noisey until 11pm on fridays when there is a disco downstairs, othewr days noise not an issue
Great location, great ski place to stay, EXCEPT for Friday nights!
VERY noisy on Friday nights so avoid this night if at all possible as guests right above the band area. It sounds like a very BAD rock concert that you can NOT turn down.
Comfortable and clean. Good meals at the bar /dining room area.
No TV; Shortage of power points.
