Guest reviews for Glow Worm Accommodation
"Close to everything, room was perfect for our family of four. Ot was nice to have the small kitchen for our morning breakfast."
"Small bathroom."
"It was a cool trendy, very happening kind of stay! Everyone was very nice. He communal kitchen had everything needed and very nice addition for soup in the evening. Accommodations were older, but clean and beds were comfortable. Very short walk to the bars, restaurants & excursions so it was a perfect location!"
"Aucun."
"Every evening the accommodation provides a lovely vegetable soup to all guests completely free. It is very thoughtful of them."
"Although I booked on-line and provided my card details the payment was not processed until I arrived on site at which time I was charged an extra 2.5% ($6) for using my card. The agreed price should have been what I paid not a cent more."
"Friendly helpful staff Free complimentary soup daily - delicious!!"

"Amazing location, walking distance to everything in Franz Josef, easy parking, friendly staff."
"We stayed next to a group of young travelers who were pretty loud, and beds weren't very comfortable, the Doona felt spikey at times making sleeping a bit hard."
"Glow Worm Accommodation offers a basic hostel style option for lodging in Franz Josef. The staff was exceptionally professional with outstanding hospitality and communication. They provide a whiteboard for coordinating rides as well as free popcorn and soup. Any issues that arise are addressed promptly. The location is very convenient to points of interest and transportation."
"The shared bathroom facilities had an awkward and cramped layout that was not conducive to privacy or comfort. The bathroom areas were cleaned periodically but in between times were sometimes messy, as can happen with shared facilities. Smoking is allowed in the primary outdoor seating area which is also adjacent to the entrance of the main building that contains the reception desk, lounge, and kitchen; it would be preferable for a designated smoking area to be located away from the areas that need to be accessed by all guests."
"Four people room with dedicated shower/toilet, fridge, and a few other things. Super friendly and helpful staff. Many "extras": soup at 6pm, popcorn all day, hot tub."
"Aucun."
"The hot tub was such a bonus!!! Well equipped kitchen. Helpful staff. Enjoyed interacting with the other guests. We had the family room and it was nice to have the kitchenette :)"
"In our room, the wifi was unreliable. The hot tub was fantastic, but closed at 7:30."
