Ngaire was a great host and we really felt welcomed right from the start with a personalized welcome message. We only stayed one night on our trip around the North island, but it was a great value and comfortable space, particularly after our 18 hours in transit to New Zealand.
Downtown Lower Hutt wasn't terribly hopping, but we found dinner.
In the morning, Ngaire had an excellent spread of food including cereal, coffee, bread, jams, milk, tea, OJ. We had a great breakfast that prepared us for an afternoon of hiking a few hours away at Mt Taranaki.
Overall this was great stopping point and very welcoming host! Thanks again!
