Joanne, Franco, George, and Daniel were all super welcoming and I immediately felt like I was home! The room was comfortable, clean and quiet, and the backyard has views to the beautiful bush (subtropical forest) nearby. Joanne and Franco gave me a lot of local tips. I also immensely enjoyed the conversations we had and learned a lot from them about New Zealand culture, Greymouth, etc. Wish I could've stayed longer! Highly recommended!
