ドミトリーのルームメイト以外は最高

オーナーが優しかったのと、古めの建物ですが温かい雰囲気で全体的にとても清潔でした！ヒーターや毛布もあり暖かかったです！犬もかわいかったです！

女性専用ドミトリーに宿泊しましたが、すぐ横が男性のいるドミトリーで、両室に家族で宿泊していた方が普通に出入りしていて、これは宿泊客側のモラルの問題ですがセキュリティが甘く感じて少し怖かったです。あと、隣の部屋がほぼ廊下だったのでいびきが響いて気になり、寝られなかったです。施設もオーナーもとても気に入ったのでまた泊まりたいと思いますが、モラルのない方と同じタイミングでの宿泊となったところだけが残念でした。次はB&Bで利用したいと思いました。

A comfy little hostel at a reasonable price.

Felt very welcome in this small hostel. The bed's were comfortable and all the facilities were quite clean. It's very good value for money.

The female dorm was a bit crammed and there were no lockers for valuables.

Comfy and special because of being close to the awa and history of the house. THX you

Loved the beautiful space and garden. Our room was comfy. Fantastic feijoa and walnuts offered in the kitchen which was a lovely touch.

It would've been great to have had another shower area available and a separate toilet space for rooms outside main house.

Friendly hospitality. Nice location in the Summertime:

Close to the River for walks. Beautiful old hotel . Needed my own transport to navigate my way around . Looked closer on Google Earth to walk from Car Rental Company to catch Bus to Palmerston North 5 minutes later. Would have missed the Bus.

It was very cold in Winter by the Whanganui River. The Oil Radiator in my room didn’t turn on. It was cold going to the bathroom via the outside verandah.

Old villa with character, amazing atmosphere - old photographs on the walls, vintage cozy lounge. Good water pressure in the shower.

We stayed during winter and it was a bit chilly.

Exceptional

A beautifully renovated colonial mansion which was clean, comfortable and affordable. I loved that the mansion was furnished fitting of its Era. Lots of fresh towels available in your room and the shared bathrooms. I loved the bath robe which was an extra touch for comfort and the electric blanket. The property exceeded my expectations. I never used the kitchen or lounge but I am sure they were great.

Great

We didnt realise but we had booked into the backpackers park of the house. But it was fine-great price and we were only there for one night. We had a private cabin type room out the back and it was a good size and clean. Bed was comfortable. Shared bathroom next to our room was large and very clean. Not our usual accommodation but very pleasantly surprised.

Couldnt catch the chicken.
