I stayed with Sue one night. What drew me there was the location. I flew in and was able to take a city bus to within 2-3 blocks of her home. It borders Hagley Park, which allowed me to spend the short time I had there to visit the botanical garden, the museum, etc. Again, it was a 15 min walk the next morning thru the park to the bus stop where I took Naked Bus to Wanaka. The road in front of the house is very busy & noisy during the work day, but very quiet after 5-6 pm. The bedroom is beautiful with very comfortable bed. Bathroom is shared with Sue & son and there is another toilet & sink on the main level.
Sue is a most gracious host. I would highly recommend it!
