Great stay in Whanganui
This was our second time staying long-term at this property. It is convenient to town and grocery stores as well as many attractions like the River City Market a short walk away. The hosts are very responsive to any and all messages and requests. We would highly recommend this property for a stay in Whanganui of any length.

This cosy townhouse was perfect for myself and elderly mother. The beds were cosy. Basic provisions available. Convenient to link with main roads. The only problem was locating the actual street.

Fab location
The house was warm, clean and tidy with everything you would expect on hand. The location is great - view of the river but the best part is that it is within easy walking distance to the city centre. Whanganui is really interesting place to visit. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the comfort of this house.

Weekend in whanganui
Great location, tidy, neat and warm property, bit sparse on kitchen items (e.g. good knives, good oil and proper S&P). Wasn't aware that the property was semi-attached, which was fine, but generally felt the need to be a bit quieter. Owners were great to deal with and really enjoyed not needing to take own linen and towels. Thank you!

Great Whanganui riverfront location
My spouse and I had a three month long stay at this location and it was perfect for our stay. The host was very responsive to the few issues we had on arrival, and she remained responsive to all my requests/questions throughout our stay. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is adequately supplied, and the heat pump worked well on the few days we needed it. The location is great. The dining room faces the river and we had a lovely view while eating. The sun comes in the room in the morning which is very nice when enjoying your morning tea/coffee. It’s a 10 minute walk into town for groceries, shopping or visiting the Saturday market. The house suited our needs so we’ll we’ve rebooked for next year.

Unacceptable filth
Unfortunately the stay was made very uncomfortable and unenjoyable due to the filth. The upstairs toilet area had pubic hair around it on the floor and the upstairs bed was disgusting. It was dreadfully obvious the sheets had not been changed or any effort made to remove pubic and head hair, and other unidentifiable fragments found inside the bed. Frankly I would hate to think about other areas or surfaces (we did not want to inspect after what we found) that would have been skipped over when such an obvious fundamental tasks have been ignored.

Hi Richard I have just received your review, and would of really appreciated a call or email to address your concerns earlier not nearly 3 weeks later. All bed linen, including duvet covers are changed after every stay. We make every effort to make sure our place is fresh & clean for our guests, & will do our best to continue to do so. Kind regards Wendy.

Good location, a 10-minute walk from the centre. It's not flash (there's a distinct 1970s vibe) but the place is spacious for six people. Semi-detached so you hear the neighbours. No milk provided. You're expected to take away your rubbish or pay for its disposal. There were instructions to put used bedding into the washing machine in the garage, but no instructions on how to enter the garage.

Not flash but comfortable, well equipped, clean, spacious and great central location. All that we needed for a family group of adults for a short stay but would be perfect for a longer stay also. Would also be good if you have kids.
