Offering a children's playground, a guest lounge and budget accommodation options, Tailor Made Tekapo Accommodation - Hostel is located in Lake Tekapo. Guests enjoy free on-site parking. Guests enjoy unlimited WiFi per day. It felt very homey! I love the community atmosphere. The rooms were small but clean. Kitchen space was nice for several of us to cook at once. It was somewhat of a commercial kitchen. The location was in the center of everything. Good value!
