Perfect for our purposes. Quiet, safe neighbourhood. Coastal Walkway virtually on the doorstep was fantastic; lovely walk into town and the galleries. Around the corner from Southern Cross Hospital and Taranaki Eye Centre, very convenient for us! The Thai place on the corner does great food. The house is spacious and private. The beds are very comfortable. Joelene very pleasant. Might be hard to stay warm here in winter -- so much single-glazed glass that bleeds heat -- but would stay here again without hesitation any other time of year.
