We had a great time with Joan and Howard. We caught a couple bad weather days in Wellington but Howard and Joan had wonderful suggestions from visiting a few local museums to the artsy cinema a couple blocks away. Delightful Brooklyn neighborhood... Reminded us of San Francisco (which is a compliment). Also, Joan and Howard provided great advice on some future tramps - good in-depth knowledge of New Zealand bush!
Great room, provided towels. Bathroom is detached but we had plenty of privacy.
