Mantra Lake Tekapo

Due to unforeseen circumstances we ended up getting in real late at night. Our hosts organised a key pick up for us, and were very accommodating. Place was immaculate, with lots of open space out our bedroom windows, perfect for some astrophotography.

I was expecting luxury and whilst overall first impression was ok faults soon appeared. Carpets threadbare in places cracks in wall and paint peeling off. Electric kettle leaked, which is dangerous, lights over breakfast counter not working also needed a good clean as covered in thick dust as where other furnishings also. Washbasin cracked several places and seemed to have sellotape holding parts together, no oven tray to cook or grill food, panel heater in lounge did not work, net curtains in lounge are ripped with large holes. So unfortunately whilst comfortable certainly not luxury and did not warrant the one night cost of almost $500. Would be grateful for a reply to this post addressing the issues.

Unfortunately, the level of maintenence is pretty low. The shower head in our apartment is leaking, hence the water pressure in the shower was low. We got a rusty frying pan in the kitchen. Unusable. The overall smell in the apartment was unpleasant, seems it hasn't been thoroughly cleaned. On our first night here we had to fight a massive bug attack in the bedroom- if that is a known problem, why not install window bug nets???
