Our stay was overall enjoyable. The main selling point of Lindy’s place is its phenomenal location! You are close to hundreds of hiking trails in and outside Tongariro National Park. While the appliances are old, the house had everything we needed. Note that there is a self-cleaning policy. We did not mind as we are tidy but we surely left the place in a much cleaner condition than we found it. Please be considerate of fellow travelers and do your part!
