I liked the situation. Did dislike the fact that there were 8 unsafe stairs that had to be climbed to the unit. Each time you vacated. Also the shower had a large step to get into which caused me to fall getting out of it. I am 80 hrs old.

We had an issue with a security light right outside the unit which shone brightly in through the rather inadequate curtains and meant we would not be able to sleep. Phoned the afterhours office number but initially got a very offhand response from Paul Rowland the manager. However the owner come and covered the light. I went to the office to say thank you for what had been done but also ensure that it would stay in place for the second night of our stay. Mr Rowland was dimissive of the problem and said no other guests had complained. He also offered that he'd worked at a well known hotel and company in Auckland. Also covid and staff problems etc, he was in bed and would have to advise the owner. Nothing to do with the issue. However I do want to congratulate the woman owner who did the fix on the night and brought in some new curtains that fully covered the windows. Her service was excellent.

In response to your review.Yes I apologize if you thought that my attitude was wrong and particularly when you called at 10pm at night having just recovered from a major hospital visit that day and auto switches to me which should not have been done.I know its not an excuse but the owner was on premises 24/7 to take any problems in my absence.
