It's just opposite the university. The balcony looks out to a playground, where you can play olive trees and football. There are two rooms and a living room. Although it's a bit old, it still has everything. Parking is also convenient. The price is moderate.

The bed sheets smelled bad; the soundproofing was poor; the carpet was dirty; I found a fly on the bed

Wonderful accomodation and in easy walking distance of the museum, university and restaurants. Accomodation was spaceous and super clean and Carolyn the owner was extremely friendly and helpful. We particularly enjoyed befriending Evie the cat. We will definitely be returning.

Great location near the centre of the city, also near the university and within walking distance of the covered stadium. There are a variety of room types available. Plenty of off street parking spaces, very clean rooms and friendly helpful staff.
Response from Property: Thanks so much for taking the time to write such a fantastic review - it is most appreciated. I hope to see you back down this way soon

My favourite place to stay in Dunedin by far. The rooms are always clean, comfortable, and have everything you need and the location is very convenient for walking and getting around the city. The owner is really awesome to talk to and is very accomodating to the guests. If I’m coming to Dunedin, I’ll always choose this place.
Response from Property: Thanks so much for your amazing review - it is always lovely to accommodate you here and I hope to see you here again soon

Went with my young family. Carolyn is an exceptional host and goes out of her way to do anything to make you feel at home with some classic southern hospitality. Our room was clean, check in was easy and the location is great for touring central Dunedin, plus having a carpark so close to town is excellent. Walking distance to the stadium too! It was surprisingly quiet for the centre of town. Even better, Carolyn was wonderful with my children, answering their questions and entertaining them while we got our things up to the room. Outstanding. We have been all around the world and nothing beats a bit of south island charm!
Response from Property: Thanks so much for your amazing review - it was a pleasure to accommodate your family here at Alhambra Oaks and your children were very charming and well behaved. I'm so glad you loved your stay and hope to see you back down this way very soon

We stayed at Alhambra Oaks Motel recently and I must say we were very impressed. The motel is very well located near the stadium and university, and only a short walk to cafes and restaurants in the CBD. The business owner Carolyn was genuinely very friendly, welcoming and helpful with all our needs. Nothing was too much trouble for her. Our room was very well presented, clean, and the bed was comfortable. There was ample parking, and altogether the whole experience exceeded our expectations and the price was more than reasonable. We will be back again soon!
Response from Property: Thanks so much for the amazing comments - it is so nice to hear you loved your stay at Alhambra Oaks. I agree our location is great for so many reasons. I hope to see you back here another time soon .

Would never stay here again....didn't expect to get a cold shower at $300 per night and i paid cash....wasnt even offered a small cash refund ....wouldn't recommend to anyone sadly....I am usually very cruisy but when I receive below standard service I am honest.
Response from Property: Apologies for the lack of hot water - as I explained to you at the time if you had waited for 15 - 20 minutes the gas hot water would have been completely replenished. This is only the second time this has happened in 8 years so a very uncommon occurrence. This was the weekend of the All Black game so the rooms were expensive - you were very happy with the price of the room you got due to a very late cancellation. I would say my service was very good - I offered you a room change and a cash refund for some alcohol you left behind. Some things are not in my control and this was one of them.

There is such an outstanding level of service provided by Carolyn and her team. She went above and beyond to help my dad celebrate his birthday and the whole family will be eternally grateful. This is next level customer service being offered here!

Room was quite small but just enough space for 2 people. Bed was very comfortable. Great selection of channels. Bathroom was spacious. Shower water pressure was good. Room heater provided which warmed up the room really quick but can be very noisy. Staff was amazing and super friendly.
Response from Property: Thanks so much for the amazing review - I really appreciate all the comments and I am so pleased you loved your stay with us. I hope to see you back another time

Carolyn was so helpful and even ensured that we had a park close to our unit because my friend had surgery on her feet. The unit was warm, beds comfortable, clean and everything you could want. We intend to always stay there when visiting Dunedin.
Response from Property: Oh what fantastic comments - thanks so much it was so lovely to have you stay here. Looking forward to next time!!

Great location with lots of food options nearby and walkable to town. Clean and tidy room. Wonderful staff, in particular the manager Carolyn couldn't have been more pleasant to deal with, would recommend to all.
Response from Property: Thanks so much David - lovely to hear all the positive comments and I really hope to see you back to stay again soon
