"Gotten free upgrades to the apartment with living room, kitchen, one bathroom and toilet, 2 bedrooms with 1 queen bed & 1 single bed inside. Fully equipped, clean, and big enough the space. Very good, recommended!"

"Our stay at Casa Nova House was an absolute highpoint in our visit to New Zealand, in my case, a month spent on the South Island. From the Old World charm of the house and grounds, which I won't even try to describe since I know I won't be able to do it justice - you just have to experience it - to the warm, generous hospitality of our hosts, it wasn't merely a nice place to stay while exploring the area, it was a magnetic and inviting place in and of itself, one to which you can't wait to return. And there is one reason in particular for that: Brenda and Katrina are the most delightful, gracious hosts I personally can recall from any of my travels over many years. Katrina is a wellspring of information, and not just dry information - she makes it interesting and fun, a real conversationalist. Brenda, too, is a joy to talk to, and her breakfasts are the most delicious works of art, but also hearty and substantial (I can scarcely imagine what a remarkable treat it would be to experience what might be offered up if she were preparing dinner). I could go on at great length, but suffice it to say, you'll be grandly well fed here. This is so much more than a standard B&B and, having stayed at many of them in various parts of the world, I have to say we've never felt more genuinely welcome, as if we were family."

"The front desk staff were incredibly friendly. We were greeted with welcome milk upon check-in and even received handmade cookies. The breakfast in the morning was excellent, a classic Western spread. Overall, it was a fantastic stay and highly recommended."

"Spacious room with ample amenities. Locationwise, a bit close to the main street so got traffic noice a bit."

"Very nice room! like! ! ! The boss and his wife are very nice, and the sanitary conditions are also very good. This town is really simple and comfortable~ Love it so much! ! ! !"

"I stayed at this at this really cool hotel that’s been around for more than a hundred years. The room was comfy and clean. The restaurant was nice, and the receptionist was super friendly."

"Good motel with clean and large rooms, with a spacious bathroom. Our unit was at ground floor with no view at all except the carpark. The motel has a restaurant where we had lunch and this is convenient. There was some noise from a close park of trucks, but not during the night."

"Good hostel. Reasonable price and well equipped facilities. I would stay here if I come Oamaru again. One bad thing. There is no front desk. So guests always have to be aware of PIN that lets you get inside (even their room). So I had to bring my mobile even when I went to the toilet. If I had forgotten my room PIN, I couldn't open the door of my room."

"Guest laundry open 08:30am and close early, but check out time 10am.. I need to rush the staff to open laudry door for me at 08:32"
