Pat’s place is awesome - the house itself is located in a quiet neighborhood yet it’s only 15-20 mins drive to airport or city centre; the room is lovely with a heavenly comfy bed, a huge en-suite bathroom and even a walk-in closet; breakfast is included and the most important thing is, Pat makes it for us :)
In a word, absolutely value-for-money (underpriced to be honest!!)
Besides, Pat is more than a superhost if I may add. Before check-in, her responses were always prompt. It was delightful to meet and chat with her, and she offered us very helpful recommendations to plan our last day in NZ (Hanmer is really nice btw and I am glad we went there). Pat also went an extra mile to let my parents stopover for a shower before their flight and it was very thoughtful of her to provide clean towels as well, for which I am particularly grateful.
