We stayed here for 1 month. Here are the PROs AND CONs...
(TLDR; basically more comfortable than living with your parents and with lots of privacy and lots of freedom)
PROS:
+LOCATION
-Perfect for tourists; It is perfectly in the middle of the best travel destinations and is right next to the highway which links to Mt.Taranaki.
-15 Min walk to beautiful beach lookout
-5 Min car drive or bus to Main City. (Supermarkets are just as close)
-5 Min walk to convenience stores and the best Fish'n'chips shop.
-10minute walk to Fitzroy
-3min drive to WITT and 15-20min walk
+COMFORTABLE & CHILL
-They have a guest fridge/freezer
-House is away from noise (You can get really deep sleeps)
-The house is really nicely furnished and kitchen has everything you need.
-Epic garden; ulimited lemons and mandarins. Beautiful collection of flowers and plants - great eye candy.
-Patio; you can bring food out and chug your beers on a fresh morning to see the sunrise or sip on a glass of leftover 2012 Canterbury Pinot Noir from Dave's cabint while looking up at the stars on the cozy cushion chairs.
-They have a fireplace where you can relax, warm up and cuddle at night.
+BEDROOM
-Bed is squeak free ;)
-So clean that there aren't even smells
-I looked under the pillow and bed covers and they use the expensive duck feather ones. They're fresh and they seem to have another protective cover so no chances of getting germs. Hella cozy and warm too.
-I think the bed fixed my scatia and lower back pain.
-Not just the room, but the entire house looks like its been freshly renovated; there isn't a single stain on the walls.
CONS
+TOO CLEAN
-House is so clean that I keep having to see my ugly face off the reflections of every surface.
-And, there isn't enough dust for me to suck up so that I can get my hit of anti-histamines. (The carpet is fresh a.f. and gets steam cleaned every week)
-There isn't a time limit on hot showers so my fingers and toes keep wrinkling up but the upside is that the water pressure feels hella good on your scalp and back.
-You'll feel insecure about your own home after your visit here
Overall; it was worth it. Price is great for what you get.
