### Edgewater Motel Te Anau

6/10 Okay

"Beds were of the old style springs, not comfortable for two with regards to partner disturbance, lucky there was a single bed in the room too, otherwise we both would have had minimal sleep. The rooms were very clean tidy and looked like had a recent refurbish, comfortable arm chairs in the mini seating area. There was a portable induction cooktop supplied to use on the bench, but there was not enough ventilation for cooking anything, there was a standard bathroom type extraction fan in the ceiling but it was in no way strong or sufficient enough to get rid of cooking smells, we only cooked once due to this. Surely a proper cooking extractor fan over the cooking area would be a requirement? The air conditioner was great kept our rooms nicely cool at night and warmed us well when needed in the morning. Friendly cleaning staff."
