The property was very clean, roomy and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Unfortunately, we were there during Wellington's 'state of emergency' and stayed indoors most of the time we were there. We felt very safe and out of danger while we were there but if you don't like loud sounds of wind and rain, you might struggle with this property. This is nothing the owners can do anything about but the noise from the horrible weather conditions made it very hard for us to sleep. Apart from that, the host was very responsive and helpful and we had a great time. I would like highly recommend this property.
