Ruth’s place was overall good for a few days! Spacious & really handy to have some cooking facilities. Great location and beautiful garden with pretty bird and bug sounds. 10-minute drive into Paihia which had plenty of spots to eat and a supermarket (countdown).
Sadly the place felt a bit damp and cold to us, I think partially as it doesn’t have that much light flooding into it. As a result there was a musty smell. We noticed a little bit of dust on some of the furniture too, and we noticed my partners asthma was slightly worse than normal - in saying this though it was totally liveable for a few days and Ruth was friendly and helpful.
We spoke to Ruth after staying and she mentioned there was a dehumidifier that should have been turned on by the cleaner, I think this may have helped with the damp feeling!
