The space is cozy and quaint. Good for a short or medium term stay, and all necessary amenities are provided for guests (kitchen utensils, some toiletries, etc). The hosts are warm and welcoming.
There is noise at some points in the day from the family home upstairs. The room also gets quite dusty so pack allergy meds if you need them. (There is access to a vacuum cleaner.)
The location is about 2km walking from the nearest supermarket, dairy or train station. Metlink is currently offering a $2,50 bus that can be booked via the app. It collects you about 100m down the road. The bus is operational weekdays from 6:30am - 7:30pm and Saturdays from 8:30- 9pm.
I enjoyed my time in this location as it is easily accessible to Wellington city and Porirua city (by train or car). The hosts also tried to make my stay pleasant and comfortable.
