Big rooms but very slow internet

👍 Like my review! We had a 3 night stay at George Street Motel Apartments in Dunedin, New Zealand as part of our trek across the country. We chose the place due to its value including a 30 minute walk to the Octagon and free onsite parking. The room layout was clean and welcoming where the living room, bathroom, and bedroom were separated from each other. The bedroom had a comfortable bed and pillows with several outlets and a separate television. The bathroom had a toilet room, sink with counter space, and a standing shower with one dispenser for both hair and body but ineffective as a conditioner. The living room and kitchen had a couch, extra bed, table with chairs, utensils, plates, bowls, pots, pans, cups, glassware, microwave, stove, toaster, kettle for drinks (coffee, tea, chocolate), cold milk, dish soap, and drying rack. The biggest issue we found during our stay was the slow, intermittent, and dropped internet. We had a bad experience when asking for an extra coffee grounds bag for the provided large coffee plunger in which the owner was not only hesitant but stated that they "never got a complaint." Although we assured the owner that we will try to make coffee with just one bag, the coffee was very weak showing that two coffee bags were needed. Had we known that this request may have caused tension, we would have simply switched over to the provided instant coffee. Despite these issues, we have faith that these can easily be resolved for future guests.

Great location close to University, Hospital, and not far from the centre of Dunedin. Free parking helps. The rooms are large and well appointed but not new.
