Dirty house

The house was dirty, we were reluctant to touch anything! The curtains in the kitchen living area were hanging down from the panel and had no stopper so came off when we pulled them. The rail was extremely dirty. The kitchen is very basic, not even a coffee plunger. The microwave is on top of a fridge so difficult and unsafe for anyone under 5’7”. And we had very tepid showers, I understand the water conservation issue but when you have paying customers I think the showers should be warm. I skipped a shower twice because it was too cold.

Which door?

The only issue I had was opening the door. The instructions were clear but the numbering on the doors were not so clear. It took a little while to unlock the property and get inside. Other than our stay went well. Thank you.

Tidy 2nd floor bach in an excellent location

Clean, tidy little bach in an excellent location. Perfect for what we were looking for. Excellent price. Just a little dated and with a few items that should be replaced (cracked plates and chairs missing feet leaving them unsteady).

Matapouri Holiday Home

Stayed in unit 2. Was clean but would be more appealing if it was updated. There were a few things that needed repairing or replacing like sliding door, window latches, shower box and other little things. Unit is on second level and is not suitable for toddlers as they cannot safety play on deck. Would have been less stressful if there were gates on second level to contain them. Railing was like a ladder for our grGreat location but accommodation was disappointing. Would stay there again
