Location: was ideal for my holiday as I included day trips to Hobbiton, Whakatane, Rotorua, McLaren Falls, Mt Maunganui all easily reachable within 1-1.5 hours.
Accommodation: self contained room on ground floor (family was upstairs) with ample hanging space, chest-of-draws, desk and single bed; heaps of power-points for phone charging and laptops and access to the hosts reliable and reasonably-rapid wifi.
Shower & Toilets: sole use of such on ground floor; Bathroom was spacious and spotless. Shower was a beauty - also spacious and the hot water was magnificent.
Kitchen: had access to basics and allocated space in the fridge. Note: tap water was surprisingly sweet-tasting for me - very refreshing.
Harumi and her family were welcoming and friendly.
Myka (the dog) always acknowledged my arrival and departure to and from the property.
Thank you Harumi for having me in your home.
All the best.
