We felt quite welcome and the location is as presented.
We appreciated Sue's space and her graciousness as a host.
Our room is cozy, with a great view of the park. The early morning sun shines brightly through the window (if you leave the drapes open a bit).
The guest commode and sink are downstairs, the shower is upstairs and shared with Sue and son.
It is an easy place to find if driving in from the Southland or coming from the airport.
Breakfasts were delicious and filling.
Access to the CBD is easy via cab, or a bit of a walk through the park (which was quite nice).
Jack the cat is cuddly, friendly, has a purr like a racing motor and will find his way to your feet (he generates quite a bit of warmth) if you leave the bedroom window open.
I would suggest having a small torch handy to light your way to the downstairs commode if you are someone who gets up in the middle of the night to use the loo, like me.
