The Mews Oamaru

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful clean and tidy room, even better having a ground floor suite with a King bed. Great to have an on site laundry to use to catch up on some washing and drying. Only 1 very small minor thing, the shower curtains didn't go all the way to the floor. All in all it was a great place to stay in a very handy location and our host was super helpful."
