Looked as advertised, until a closer inspection revealed the mold on windows ,doors and shower base, cobwebs, dirty kitchen joinery, stained cups and just general lack of that clean sparkle we expected.
General meanness in what is supplied- 5 tea bags for 4 people for 5 day stay, 3 skinny toilet rolls,1 rubbish bag and although an exit clean is charged you have to remove all rubbish and recyclables. The addition of simple things like salt and pepper, sugar, extra bath mats, hand towels etc. would have made a big difference to eliminate feelings of miserableness. This batch didn't show Kiwi hospitality at its best.
I had enquired about natural linen due to health issues and was assured all was fine- everything was polyester so used our own blankets, so disappointing given I had asked. Three of us got bitten and it was only when my daughter found a flea on her that we knew what the bites were. The dryer door catch was broken, didn't realise until Sunday. No WIFI and very sketchy cell phone coverage, communication mostly impossible. No manual for the accommodation or info to show local attractions, such simple things show care and consideration of your guests. Owners need to check on the cleaners and do a before check-in inspection. Feel really let down, was supposed to be a special family time. Location was the only reason we stayed, it was handy to the wedding we were attending.
