廁所有很臭的味道,通風也沒用,是從馬桶裏傳出來的,令人反胃,優勢就是它的位置,離湖邊近,晚上可以步行去觀星,住宿本身比較一般。同等價格在瓦納卡會住的好一點,特卡波這邊就是這樣的。

Basic hotel facilities. Bed at the door of the room. Bad air ventilation. Overpriced.

The location is good. You can reach the lake and watch the beautiful galaxy from the back door of the room with just 5 minutes walk.

超級棒,地理位置太優越了,就在湖邊,房間直接看到湖。我們入住的是二樓,搬行李有點麻煩,如果一樓就更方便了!

Good view from the room. Comfortable and cozy. It’s really cold outside but the warmer is strong enough.
