    Fantastic location and facility, loved the decor, felt very homely and lovely. Loved the detail in the design, my favourite place to stay in NZ right now.Best place to stay, loved it, felt very comfortable. I am a female and travel alone, this was a perfect venue, made me feel safe, welcome and not weird eating alone in the bistro.
