Overnighted here after arriving on the Wellington-Picton ferry around midnight. Parking and check-in were no problem despite the late hour and the room and facilities were adequate and good value.

It was an amazing stay. From the time I arrived until the time I left, I felt like I was with family. Everything was cleaned regularly and supplies were replenished as necessary. The owner takes pride in her property and has great compassion for people. I plan to return.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Türen der Toiletten ohne Haken um etwas aufzuhängen. Kalte Dusche, die auch sehr beengt war. Kissenbezug frisch? In einem 3 er Zimmer gab es 2 Hoch Betten und ein normales Bett. Das Hochbett war schwierig zu erklimmen und es gab keine Absicherung. Selbst für das wenige Geld sehr unangenehm. Tagsüber steht die Eingangstür auf aber es ist Birnen an der Rezeption. Unsicher!
