The family was very nice and the house very clean. You have to share all but the bedroom with the host, kitchen, living room etc. We didn't feel comfortable doing this. You must have a car which is very expensive. You can take a bus or walk to anywhere you want to go from Queenstown. The bedroom can be very hot in the summer. Nice washing machine but no dryer. The bed pillows are not comfortable and no cover sheet on the bed. No tv in the room. I would recommend only for 1 or 2-night stay.
