Robyn's nest was exactly what I needed - quiet and comfortable with easy parking, as well as food/gas just down the street. But the best part of Robyn's nest is Robyn herself - the kindest, friendliest, most helpful person ever. She knows practically everything about Whangarei and is more than happy to share her knowledge. I cannot recommend Robyn's nest enough - it is the perfect place to stay for anyone traveling on their own, especially if you want some local insight!
