Liked: Cleanliness
Room was clean. Bedding a bit uncomfortable. Found it hard to get warm. Had to turn airconditioner off as it blew its stream of air right onto bed. Generally a bit dated. Continental breakfast fine, but note that said if we did not clean up sufficiently we would be charged, did not go down well.

Friendly staffs and owners. The owner hosted a free glowworms tour every night in the forest beside the lodge. He’s very experienced and also told us many fun facts on glowworms. Overall a clean lodge at a very convenient location. The only small downside is the stove for cooking in the room is not very strong, so it might take awhile if you want to do self-cooking. Will definitely recommend friends to stay at this place when they visit fox glacier.

We stayed one night, room was reasonably clean, staff was super friendly. Breakfast is included, very basic but enough to start the day. The bread on the table appeared to be homemade and was very good. Small kitchen area for everyone trying to cook breakfast at the same time but doable. All in all a good experience.

Compact room, hostel-style kitchen breakfast

We had a compact room and were therefore offered the use of a small room opposite for our luggage, which we didn't need. Everything in the room was clean but the carpet was worn. The location was quiet. Kettle and breakfast were in a communal kitchen which was more hostel-style than hotel. Adequate food was laid out in the morning, which we helped ourselves to. It was off-putting that people were expected to do their own washing up, and we saw people just rinsing things minimally under the tap rather than washing them properly.

I think it's a nice enough place. It seemed more primitive with less heat. Combination motel and motorhome place. If it had been rated at an eight out of 10 I probably would have given it a higher rating.
