The property was clean and tidy, equipped with what we needed. Unfortunately good sleep was not a luxury we had, due to the constant heavy vehicles using the road, causing the whole house to rattle / vibrate. It woke us up multiple times throughout the night, and sleeping in was impossible.
A very spacious and warm home. We had a fabulous stay especially with the tamariki. The kids loved the toy box. Nice having the fireplace too.Easy walk and distance to both Whakarewarewa and Te Puia and ample parking. Great host.

The house is newly renovated and clean and comfortable. Easy parking. Each room has a heater. This time we were just passing by, so we stayed for one night. We will come back and experience more it next time.
Lovely accomodation, clean and warm for the winter. Very spacious for the eight of us to stay. Laundry & kitchen were fully equip. More than what I expected. Booking and check in was a smooth process. Appreciate the communication from our host. Very close to everything that we had planned. Good parking for our vehicles. Will definitely use this home again in Rotorua.Thank you

As advertised. Comfortable, clean, nice facilities. Lots of road noise and the passing trucks do shake the property but we had no issues sleeping through it

Perfect house for 4 friends traveling together. The kitchen was stocked with all the equipment to cook an American Thanksgiving meal. (We are from the US and were staying there over Thanksgiving at home). The house is in a great location to town and other activities, although it's a little noisy being on a busy street. We would definitely book this property again!

Great location, awesome Phillipino food takeaways just a short walk away. Only negative is that the whole house shakes when trucks travel past.

There is a significant amount of road noise with trucks rumbling past shaking the house all night.Otherwise, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the house or the check-in/out ccommunications.It is clean and well equipped. The showers have good pressure.The owner is very helpful and tried to accommodate our request for early arrival and late departure as much as possible.There is an internal garage which is great for storing bikes and the house is very well located for getting to/from Whakarewarewa forest and to other Rotorua attractions.

Hi Antony
Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us. We’re glad to hear that you found the house clean, well equipped, and comfortable.
We sincerely apologise for the road noise at night. During your stay, another main road was under construction and closed between 6 pm and 6 am, so vehicles travelling west from the eastern side of the city were temporarily redirected past our area.
Thank you for your understanding.
Kind regards,
Ning
We had everything we needed for the three night stay. Our kitchen was very well appointed and the place had more than enough room. We walked to most of our hikes and grocery stores. I would highly recommend it.
