Carol is so nice! She helped my friend and I get sorted as we began our trip in NZ. Super sociable, polite, warm, and respectable. The place was very clean, beds were beyond comfortable, quiet neighbourhood and not a long walk from the beach for the mornings. We were free to go and come as we pleased and Carol was more than accommodating with anything we needed. We would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet place to stay. Hope we see Carol again!
