A real treat. Warm hosts that actively reached out, keen to assist. A dream home with everything you need and more. Comfy rooms, master bedroom comes with ensuite toilet. Large living room with smart TV, a solid blue tooth speaker, and even a ping pong table facilitated post dinner activities. Large and well equipped kitchen for the travelling MasterChef wannabe. And a superb washer-dryer combo helped with my end trip laundry situation. Worth every penny. City centre location made it a great place to explore neighbouring towns/vineyards.

    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.
