Janet, Ian and Louie were very friendly and welcoming. The bedroom was lovely and the bed extremely comfortable. The bathroom was sparkling clean. Janet and Ian welcome their guests into their home a way that is so genuine and “kiwi-as”. It is definitely a genuine and homely hosted experience, if this is what you are looking for. It was wonderful to meet them both, and I especially loved the effervescent and cheeky Louie (reminded me of my own dog). They were very relaxed and flexible about my arrival time, which was delayed due to unforeseen circumstances on my arrival. Warm thanks to them for hosting me.
