We didn’t get to meet Yvonne as she was away, so can’t comment on her hospitality. She did let us check in early. Such a wonderful location, easy walk to Mangonui wharf and shops. Right on the water with an amazing view. The place was warm and well appointed, everything you need is there. The cleanliness was good but there were a few spider webs in the bathroom. The decor is stating to look a bit tired and the place was a bit musty- but maybe it had been locked up for awhile.
