The place was okay, was central to most places we wanted to visit.
We were disappointed in 2 towels for four people for a week and no top sheets on the bed which is extremely unhygienic as those duvets had been pulled over many guests and had stains on them. When we mentioned this to Victor he told us he was not a hotel and to go find somewhere else at his loss as he couldn't supply more towels, knowing we could not get more accomodation as there was a big event in town. I think this is a poor response when we says linen and towels supplied, then our other option was to wash them in the washing machine for $10 per load!! When the washing machine was sitting in the bnb. Richardson road has a great laundromat where you can wash and dry for $3. We ended up going out to buy our own top sheets for the beds as he only supplied one bedsheet unwillingly and left them on a dirty table outside. Not acceptable when you already have travel costs. The kitchen had no cheese grater and 1 pot when he says he provides your kitchen ammenities, made it very hard to cook your own meals as no one should have to buy or bring these things on holiday with them. The back door only had a gate bolt across it not very secure, the kitchen window was also boarded up and huge gaps under the kitchen door making it very cold. We received only 1 tea towel, 1 bath mat and 1 hand towel for a whole week for 4 people and the bathmat was so terribly stained it looked like old blood on it. Unfortunately will be returning to other bnb's in Auckland we have stayed in prior as I feel these complaints are just basic needs.
