I had a perfect time at this small but awesome studio. All these little details in the studio made my stay even more perfect. The host was also really lovely and welcoming. I definitely want to return to this amazing place.

The room was very modern and very clean. Felt like a 5 star hotel. Everything you would need to feel like you were on a holiday with privacy. Rory was an excellent host who we felt genuinely cared about our stay in Whanganui. Thank you Rory. Will definitely book again at the Smith House.

This is *the best place to stay in Levin*. We've stayed around other places as we come to Levin regularly for family reasons. It's away from road, so it's quiet at night. The kitchenette is well stocked. The shower is powerful. The bed is comfortable. It has what a motel needs and does it all very well!

This is a very cosy, comfortable and relaxing place to stay with a supermarket just around the corner and within easy reach of the city centre. The guest bedroom and seating area is very light and warm in sunny weather and a heat-pump keeps the room warm on cooler evenings. The self serve continental breakfast is very generous in portion size making a good start to each day. It was easy to share the kitchen facilities for meal preparation and cleaning up.

Location was great staff brilliant. I can see that you are probably slowly renovating once all is completed it will be a live place to stay. Maybe a little more information about the area and things to do

Impressed by the friendly, helpful owners who made contact with me soon after I booked the studio and were keen to accommodate our needs. This is a great little set up, clean, tidy and nicely decorated, with more than you would expect. We loved having 2 arm chairs, a great shower, and a good breakfast. We appreciated having a fridge, toaster and microwave so we could cater for ourselves - over and above the breakfast provided. The location was about a 5-minute drive from the city centre and the area was very quiet at night.
