We had a good stay at Jono's. Positives were: spacious house ideal for families, very comfortable lounge/tv area with Sky TV, nice big kitchen - great for cooking family meals. Negatives - for us personally, it felt like we were staying at a mate's place for a couple of nights. The place wasn't professionally cleaned (which is fine but it showed! eg. there was a bunch of the host's dirty clothes in the laundry sink) and we feel that it wasn't worth the price we paid ($450 a night). It was Waitangi Day long weekend, so can understand the price increase, but the property is not up to the standard of that price range.
That being said, we did have a nice stay and it provided our traveling party (4 adults, 2 infants) with more than enough space and amenities for a comfortable stay.
