No issues during our stay here. Staff was happy to swap our room from the 2nd floor to the ground floor without concern. Laundry facilities are decent and affordable.

Best Western the best
We spent 4 nights at Best Western Dunedin. We were upgraded to a double room unit so had plenty of space.
We were able to keep the room very warm as we were there mid winter and it was raining most days. Laundry facilities were great.

The room and facilities were nice, although when we arrived the staff had said they had put our room up for people to book.
Luckily no one had booked it so, in the end, we could stay although it was not very reliable.
