Although we never met Mark in person due to being in and out at different times, our experience of him was that he was very accommodating. Greeted with a fruit bowl, bread, coffee and jams, clean linen, and beautiful nature surrounds made this stay feel very homely. We also had access to the kitchen and other rooms so we could cook our food and chill out. Easy access to the beautiful Mt Wellington and short drive to the city. Shower worked great and bathroom was clean.
