To be honest, me and my partner were not sure about staying over someone's else house than staying in a Motel, but we surprisingly found Markus place as good as any good Motel around New Zealand.
They set up a really nice space downstairs their house with a private kitchen and bathroom, very stylish, very quiet, very private and more important, very comfortable.
We had an Outstanding Hospitality and we felt very welcomed with even a Lemon from their garden for my Corona.
I would recommend them any time.
