Glen's place is sufficiently equipped and well-located for an overnight stay as we move towards the south of the North Island.
It was unfortunately raining heavily during our check-in and the entrance to our unit was located at the back of the house, which was not easily accessible with luggage. Thankfully Glen offered a way through his upper floor unit which had direct access, although we had to go up and down stairs, but it was sheltered.
The rooms and beds were comfy, while the dining/sofa area can be a bit too cozy for 5 pax. For light sleepers there are sounds from upstairs and also of the ocean waves nearby.
We enjoyed the homemade bread provided for a lovely breakfast.
