Everything. This accommodation was very clean and well presented. Only a few Km out of main CBD. Washing m/c and clothes line a welcome sight. Nice views. Plenty of space.

Perfect location and plenty of room.

A good location as a base to visit Huka Falls & white water rafting in Turangi. We wanted a house to have some space & do some washing halfway through a 2 week trip. The owners provided easy to follow instructions for key pick up. The lounge area was huge.
The downstairs bed was apparently not very comfortable according to 2 of our group. Dealing with our own non- recyclable rubbish was unusual for us.

Excellent location, so close to town and being able to see the river was special for us.
The house was always warm & toasty to come back to after a day on a windy rugby field

The comfort, the roomiest, (compared to motels!) There were four of us adults, (2 from Aussies) and they said WOW this is fabulous.
Being very cold on our last morning, the frost was solid. Beautiful days, clear scenic views all around us. Could not have faulted a thing. Cleanliness was exceptional. Kitchen was well stocked with all needed.

Lots of room for myself, husband and children. Also, very clean and tidy. Good value for money.
Nothing really, if I had to point one thing out it would be the T.V wasn’t a smart t.v but we went and got a chrome cast from town and had an awesome movie night in.

Good location, 15 min walk to the centre.
The property is rather run down and needs some tlc, missing blinds in kitchen, carpet stairs coming away so spikes sticking up on stairs, couldn’t find outdoor lights, place not hoovered properly, didn’t feel too secure as glass sliding main doors and single glass back door.

A great location - close to our conference. Easy instructions however, I forgot to save them or screen shot them so it was my fault I couldn't find the lockbox number.

Confortable and warm house
9.0
The location of the house was perfect. It was spacious and gave lots of space for off street parking for all the guests. We all loved the place and highly recommend it for other people to stay there.
There was not enough towels for all the guests considering it was a full house and seemed to be enough for 1 shower each, so spare towels would have been nice. Also, the TV in the bottom room did not work. Also think that maybe some more covering on the deck would have been nice. Otherwise, a lovely place.

3.0
Good location, reasonable property.
Paid for three nights, left after one. Tired, tatty, smelly and overdue a makeover, particularly the linen. House appeared unloved and looked as if it had been furnished from house clearance shop. A deep clean and a lick of paint would help.
8.0
The summary says it all. Great value. The downstairs bedroom is a great little private haven. Massive lounge room upstairs. Very convenient to town but far enough away that doesn’t feel too busy. Friendly host
Nothing worth mentioning. Only minor stuff.
