The tea and coffee provided in the room were poor- powdered with creamer and sugar. we'd prefer them unmixed and fresh milk to be available. Otherwise, good and a great outlook of the lake

This is at the backpacker / hostel.
After booking the “loft” you get a message that you check in at the backpackers place. I thought this meant that they were short staffed and needed the backpackers reception to help out. Well, our room was at the backpackers’ place and located over the common area/kitchen. Walls in our room were thin so you can hear the conversations of others while they’re in the kitchen. There was a small wine fridge in our room which was a pleasant surprise. Faucet in bathroom was loose and the shower head hose was broken and sprayed everywhere. Would not stay here again because I’m not interested in staying at a backpackers’ hostel anymore at this point of my life.

We loved Te Anau. The loft was great. Comfortable bed. Nice decor. The community kitchen was well stocked with supplies and clean. We appreciated being able to do laundry. The property was well-located and peaceful.

My stay at Lakewood Lofts in Te Anau was the highlight of my trip around New Zealand. This place is truly a gem! Situated right on the lake, the location couldn't be more perfect. The experience of watching the snowfall over the lake from the comfort of the Lofts was nothing short of magical. The serene and picturesque setting provided an unforgettable backdrop to our stay. Everything about Lakewood Lofts, from the warm and inviting atmosphere to the stunning natural beauty right at our doorstep, was absolutely wonderful. It's a rare find that offers a perfect blend of comfort and natural beauty. I can't recommend it enough to anyone visiting Te Anau.

On first arriving you think you’ve checked in to a backpackers, there’s multiple options at this property and each one is satisfactory for the price, we loved our room which was Greenstone room overlooked the lake and was very comfortable, for the price compared to other properties on Lakeside 10 out of 10.

Overall an ok stay. A bit of noise from the shared kitchen downstairs. The thing I'll remember though is that the shampoo/body wash in the shower was cut with water and almost no shampoo was left. That's super offputting. At that point don't provide any and have people provide their own.
