The bathroom is a bit small, the room is not big, it is very close to the beach and there is McDonald's KFC nearby

The Chinese owner is very welcoming and the hotel is not far from the town center, including a spot to see penguins. It’s only a 20-minute walk! Have a nice day! For those who have a limited budget and do not plan to stay in Oamaru for a long time, this is a suitable place to stay.

We drove ourselves, and the transportation was very convenient. It is a must-go place on the eastern coastal route from Christchurch to Queenstown.
Lived here for 3 days, life is very convenient. There is a big supermarket Woolworth, Chinese and Western restaurants, pharmacies, etc. along the main road outside the door. You can see them by walking without driving.
It is convenient to visit because it is on SH1 (East Coast Main Road). A little south is the city center, where the old Victorian district and local blue penguins are located (within walking distance from the hotel). 200 meters to the east is the sea. Going north along the Waitaki River and heading west, you can reach Duntroon (recommended, only 30KM away from the hotel, with nice trail scenery), Lake Tekapo, Queenstown, Wanaka, and Mount Cook.
The hotel is quiet, soundproof and comfortable to sleep.

They are really average, the facilities are old, the hygiene level is average, and the pressure of the bath water is too low.

去到奧馬魯看企鵝，攜程上找到的一家汽車旅館，就在路邊，有停車場，很方便，房間設施齊全，乾淨整潔，距離企鵝上岸歸巣中心開車十來分鐘，不錯，價格也合適。
