Great place to stay after our caving adventure. Wonderful host and great breakfast included. Only bummer was the parking situation. If you have much luggage it’s a hassle to carry it up the stairs, and parking was a small distance from the rooms.

Perfect location for our Waitomo Adventures caving activity. The owners are super friendly and accomodating. Breakfast was provided - cereal, bread, yogurt, coffee, etc which was much appreciated for our early morning start. You can walk to a couple cafes as well.
