テカポ周辺の宿泊が高い中、若干安めの上、丘の上で比較的ロケーションがよかった。 テカポ湖まで車で5分ほどで、丘を降りたところには観光牧場もあり、便利です。 二部屋を三泊借りました。 調理器具や食器も豊富。オリーブオイルなどの油がなかったのだけ残念でしたが、スーパーで購入可能だと思います。 室内は清潔でなんの心配もありません。 日本では珍しい？ガレージから直接室内に入れるタイプの建築構造は、珍しくて面白かったです。 一つ。 ニュージーランド内のごみの分別は日本とは当然異なるため、行く前に少し確認しておく方がいいと思います。 清潔で快適なアパートメントで過ごせました。

Bad communication from property manager

I have never made a bad review ever on Hotels.com. So I hope that the owner will read this. Upon arriving at 1 PM. I asked what we do about breakfast because I wasn’t sure. I was told by the property manager that I would’ve had to have, pre-ordered it when I made my booking. Not having my paper in front of me I thought that I may have done that and I said I was aware of the breakfast. But the manager said that I had not and it was thus not available. I I specifically booked this property because of the continental breakfast. I could’ve found many less expensive options. The property manager made it clear that the breakfast was no longer available. Although even on their website, it says that I have until 5 o’clock to order it. I did not want any problems so I just excepted her explanation graciously. Later that evening, I contacted Hotels.com to register a complaint. They reached out to the property manager, who then shockingly told hotels.com that they had informed me that I would have to order it by 5 o’clock that day, and that they waited for my car that they didn’t receive. Why on earth, would I not have ordered it right then if she had told me that? It appeared that the property manager either did not want to do the extra work for breakfast, or did not, as she said, have the supplies necessary, because I had not reserved it when I made my booking. if you want to reach us, please reach out to me. And please solve this problem for others.
