Lesson learned - we will only book from a SuperHost from now on. I urge future travellers to confirm (in writing) that all listed amenities are present AND in proper working order.
The place is quite run down with peeling wallpaper and mould growing around the bathtub. However, we looked past this as we mostly just wanted a place crash after long days of tramping. It was generally clean otherwise.
Be prepared for very low water pressure and showers taking longer than necessary.
There was unusual artwork and many knickknacks scattered around the place which didn't really add value or add to our experience. They were mostly in the way when it came to unpacking our clothes and toiletries. They would be much better suited on display in a quirky local museum.
As mentioned by other reviewers, with some renovations and TLC, it could be a great central spot for those exploring the Catlins.
