We were surprised by the upgrade - and it was just fabulous! Perfectly quiet for a couple of old girls having a road trip, and we really enjoyed staying with you. Ohakune had some lovely surprises too - we weren't aware of all the options available. Walking track to the falls was a bit tiring, but we made it half way and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful surroundings.
