You will find Frances to be very welcoming, personable and helpful.
Frances' home is from the 1930s with high ceilings and much of the original interior intact. The room is more than adequate size for one or two guests. There is a desk with an excellent light, a chest of drawers and an armoire. Plenty of room to put your things. Power bar for charging your electronics.
The bed is comfortable; has a bedside table with lamp and extra quilts available. Ensuite bath is of adequate size and functional. Plenty of hot water. Excellent tub-shower.
Everything is very clean.
The location is good. Walk into Napier central about 1.5 km. Short walk to the ocean, although the beach there is not safe for swimming.
Highly recommended.
