Perhaps it would have been nice to have a cool room on arrival on the hottest day this year, the room had not had the air conditioner turned on, so it did take a while to cool. Blankets were provided to replace the very fluffy duvet which is too heavy for summer, perhaps a lighter summer weight duvet would be better? Over all a very comfortable stay and highly recommended. ##### Jenny Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 8, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The friendliness of the hosts and the interaction with the guests was unique ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cornelia, Palmerston North Jan 6, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Incredible views from unit, friendly hosts and lovely property.
