janjanchoiKorea, Republic of숙소 찾느라 많이 헤멨음
숙소가 에어 B&B였음. 숙소에서 조리와 식사가 가능함. 난방시설이 갖추어져 있어 따뜻함.
밤에 도착했는데 주변이 완전 어두워 숙소를 찾을 수가 없었음. 메세지를 제대로 확인하지 못하니까 숙소 찾느라 1시간 이상 헤멨음.
사전에 업그레이드 해 준다 해서 accept 했는데 가보니 호텔이 아니라 에어 B&B 형태의 그냥 살림집이었음. 게다가 직원근무후에는 요금을 추가로 지불해야 하는 게…

We suggest you bring more layers when you are planning to visit Tekapo from April to October. Kindly noted that we are not able to cancel the booking due to natural disasters or road closures.

What we’d check for you here
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about Matariki Star
What time is check-in and check-out at Matariki Star?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Matariki Star allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Matariki Star?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Matariki Star have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Matariki Star have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Matariki Star?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
