Cynthia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Fox glacier is a sleepy town. If you want to stay more than 1 night, I would recommend Franz Joseph instead. The property is convenient and the woman who checked us in extremely nice and helpful. The bed was decent, but had a lump in the middle. Bathroom was large and very clean.
