Cheap & Cheerful 1-3Bdr roomy Guest-Wing at the 150-yr-old Aratapu School House

Cheap & Cheerful 1-3Bdr roomy Guest-Wing at the 150-yr-old Aratapu School House

10/10 Excellent
"Exactly as described, this house is somewhere to stay if you're not looking for anything high-end. The beds are comfortable and clean, the kitchen has everything you need to cook (I appreciated the pots and pans without the teflon coating), the washing machine and dryer worked fine and the internet and TV worked fine. There was lots of dust and cobwebs and a few spiders, but that's what you'd expect of an old schoolhouse.The location, 10 minutes drive south of Dargaville suited us well and the property manager was responsive and helpful. Thanks for a great stay!"
