    What a lovely welcome from our personable and friendly host! From the moment we stepped in, Tony could not do enough for us. The bed was fabulously comfortable and we overlooked the garden so could watch kingfishers and other wildlife going about their routine. Breakfast included, whilst other meals necessitated a short drive to restaurants in town. This is a traditional B&B so all the guests sat around the same table for breakfast which was a great opportunity to meet international travellers or more local folk on work trips. Bathroom facilities were great, shared with 2 other guest rooms. On check-out day, we travelled around the east cape and later that evening, we received a call from Tony checking that all had gone well. Nice touch! We stayed one night and would definitely return.

    A brilliant host who was very helpful on places to eat etc. An excellent breakfast with a good choice of cereals, toast etc. A very comfortable room.

    The property was undergoing renovation but all good in general as the interior is usable and clean. Just need to have a visible signage by the road so its easier to see.

    Was a little out of the center of town, but that suited me as I enjoyed the walk in and Tony advised me on the most picturesque route to get there.

    Loved this place. Loved the history of the building. Tony was a great entertaining, accommodating, and hospital host who made me a fantastic breakfast and gave me great advice about visiting Gisborne. I also enjoyed meeting the other guests and the bed was super comfortable.

Relocated ex working mans club being renovated by the lovely owner/manager Tony. High beamed ceilings in the living quarters, comfy bed, spotless bathrooms with thick fluffy towels. Will definitely go back there to see what progress he has accomplished. Thank you for your generous hospitality Tony and your korero about the history of you beautiful whare.

    It appears that the place has not be well maintained most recently, which is a shame as otherwise it is a lovely place. Unfortunately, the main host wasn't available for our stay, but his friend filled in as best she could. Hard to give a recommendation given our stay, but I think had the main host been available we would have had a better experience, and this is reinforced by others' comments.

    A lovely building being restored. Comfortable beds, and nice lounge for relaxing.
