    comfortable bed
    poor shower pressure
    lack of cleanliness

    Comfortable bed with nice heated blanket.

    Unfortunately, the shower had dreadful water pressure, making it difficult to enjoy a proper wash. I also found the cleanliness to be lacking, with cobwebs and debris remaining in the corners of the room. Additionally, the tap water warning made it inconvenient as we had to purchase bottled water due to unclear communication about the boil order status.

    spacious room
    comfy bed
    cleanliness
    tricky door

    The room was spacious with a super comfy bed that made for great sleep after our long drive, and the cleanliness was definitely a plus. I really enjoyed the access to cozy outdoor seating and a nice garden view for some relaxation time. Just a heads up, the front door was a bit tricky to open at times, but it didn’t ruin my overall experience. 😊

    warm room
    friendly staff
    low water pressure

    the shower had low water pressure,, which was annoying. the kitchenette was fully equipped (had an electric pan! ), and we loved how warm and clean the room was. super friendly staff made our stay better (especially considering the language barrier).

    unreliable wifi

    The Westhaven Motel offered well-appointed rooms that were modern, spacious, and very clean. The comfortable bed contributed to a good night's sleep. The location was convenient, just a short walk to the main street, making it easy to access restaurants and attractions like Lake Matheson.

    WiFi connection was unreliable.

    spacious rooms

    Just a balanced option for an overnight stay in Fox Glacier with all in all brilliant value for money. The spacious rooms made settling in easy after a long drive. Bring your own water as the tap isn't drinkable.

    clean room
    comfortable beds
    lack of staff

    Room was clean and spacious, which made settling in easy. The beds were comfortable, perfect for a good night's sleep. Proximity to local cafes is great for grabbing meals without hassle. The kitchenette was equipped enough to make simple meals, which added convenience. However, the water was a concern with the boil notice, leading to inconvenience for drinking and washing. I noticed cobwebs in the corners, which detracted from the overall cleanliness feel. The heater struggled a bit, making it chilly at times. It would've been nice to see more attentive staff during my stay, as I didn't encounter any besides check-in. Also, the outdated furniture needs a refresh. Overall, it's a decent place for a short stay but needs some improvements.

    comfortable stay but lacking in some areas

    The room was spacious and provided a nice setup with a kitchenette. I appreciated the cozy garden view, which added a pleasant touch to my stay. The proximity to local restaurants made it easy to explore dining options without hassle.

    The water pressure in the shower was disappointing.

    Comfortable stay with spacious rooms

    I enjoyed my time at this motel—the room was large and offered a nice setup with a fridge and microwave, which made it easy for snacks and meals. The close proximity to various restaurants was a real plus, letting us explore local dining options without hassle. However, I think the place could use some refreshing in terms of upkeep, as some areas felt a bit worn down.
