Prem is a very accommodating host. He made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of during our stay at his large comfortable home.
Communication with Prem leading up to our arrival was excellent. He met us in person and showed us around the house. The house has many amenities, including complete kitchen, washer and dryer and BBQ grill. Milk, tea, coffer and cooking condiments were provided.
The house was fresh and spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfortable and the house was on a very quiet street. It is close to all the other Lower Hutt neighborhoods and it is easy to get to the Wellington center by car or train. The nearest train station is about a 10 minute drive and has free parking. We took the train on Saturday and the parking lot was almost empty.
There is an outstanding farmers market in Lower Hutt on Saturdays, with many fresh fruit and vegetable and other vendors.
There are also great trails and parks very near to the house. We trekked one of the trails starting just a few blocks from the house, up the mountain to Lowery Lookout and down to Days Bay on the other side.
