Kauri Nest

The host was perfectly pleasant and it was quite central.

The hut was a considerable distance from the toilet/bathroom. It wasn’t the bathroom in the photos. Other misinformation in the advertising included the availability of breakfast. The wifi was next to useless. Parking a bit tricky. The cabin was pretty cramped, (10 sq metres). The mattress was somewhat uncomfortable, not enough bedding for May weather, the heater noisy and there were no bedside lights. Traffic was noisy at peak times. There was only a microwave and a small fridge. Even a camping ground cabin would probably have offered a shared kitchen and cost less.

I didn't stay for breakfast. location is good as its close to the centre of Whangarei and walks. The cabin was clean and tidy. pet friendly.

I was quite cold in the night as it is now April and there were no extra blankets, the heater I could not get to work. I tried many variations but no success. I was told the bathroom was a distance from the house which I expected, however there was no water in the cabin and I had to fill up the kettle for tea etc, as it was empty. On a cold night and early mornings a bit more like camping.
