It is a beautiful spot to stay, couldn't have been any more convenient location wise, could walk to everything easily. The apartment itself is lovely and tidy with stunning views. It would be perfect for two people, however, we had 3 adults and the third persons single bed was very uncomfortable, located in the kitchenette next to a noisey fridge. They ended up on the couch to try get a better sleep which was a big shame as the double bed upstairs was decidant and we expected them to be the same experience for both.

Great for a one night or more stay for the caves!!
"Nice place just around the corner from the Waitomo caves experience with the 100 meter absail...There were a fair number of steps up to our room but the room was nice and the water pressure was good. We kept warm on a July night and slept well. The breakfast was a fine continental breakfast and checkout ..."
