This is a well-kept, nicely furnished and very clean property.The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen facilities were excellent with many extras provided. The host Wayne checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. He also thoughtfully mentioned the street was going to be blocked off early on the day we were leaving due to a triathlon event.

Staff were super friendly and offered me a lot of help, laundry was the cheapest so far I’ve done in New Zealand. The beds, bathroom, kitchen are very clean. Location is good, was in a quiet neighborhood and still close to the city center.
