Good location
Big house, plenty of room. A touch dated and due for a remodel/deep clean. Back deck furniture was dirty, but we didn’t use it. Also no grill as advertised. Hosts were super nice and easy to contact.

Serviced our stay well.
No shower mats, with tile floors was a pain and slippery, no TV, and not able to use exterior door due to being locked. Heating was good along with good garage space. Quite a few roaches in the kitchen.

Easter Stay
Great location for us, we were square dancing at the Intermediate school on Kotare St. Plenty of living space. Great that there was an ensuite, that meant 2 bathrooms for 5 people. Just FYI, there seems to be a bit of a cockroach issue. We killed and cleaned up maybe 10 of the little blighters. (and took them away in our rubbish). They were predominantly along the kitchen bench area under the kitchen window. We weren't too worried about it, took a pretty pragmatic approach. But no doubt there'll be more. Just thought you should know.

The house was great. Double bed with the bunk above had a terrible mattress. Other beds were good. There were lots of cochroaches on the kitchen bench and draws. Not nice at all. There is a lot of road noise from Napier Rd but was a good place besides those issues
