Baldwin Street BNB
I think the room we stayed was below the house where the owners of the accommodation live. The room and shared space look good and the shower was enjoyable. There's no parking available on the driveway, parking is further down the hill on the street.

Scenic Hotel Southern Cross
Room was outdated. Advertised buffet breakfast at a discounted rate only to find out at the restaurant that the advertisement was no longer valid. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Scenic Hotel Dunedin City
Good location but a tired hotel with rooms needing a makeover. For the price there are better options available elsewhere.
