The room was comfortable and clean, though the bathroom could use some extra dust/cleaning. The kitchen area was clean, but when opened cupboards there was an odour of mildew. A bit noisy from other guests. Overall a comfortable stay.

The Totara Lodge was a good choice for our one night stay in Levin. It is in a quiet location just to the west of the main street, and in easy walking distance to dining options and supermarkets. The room had everything we needed and was clean and tidy. Can recommend the local Som Thum Thai on the main street if you’re looking for a quick meal (good food, licensed, good service).
