Nareeb accommodation from NZ$158

My fiancé & I stayed 2 nightto scope out the property for our wedding (the online photos are amazing) The room we stayed in was in the queen mews, as we were informed online the other rooms were all booked out, I believe this to be untrue which was disappointing. Room we stayed in was extremely dusty, there were dust piles under the bed & behind doors. There were a lot of dead bugs in shower & on bathroom floor also. Toaster also had large chunks of burnt bread in it. Cleanliness was not very high. I believe the bed in room 5 is a double, not queen. Pillows were old and misshapen. Mattress was also very hard. Initial view however was very cute, although not like photos at all. Property has functional wifi. Owner stated it’s available on the verandah of the private residence, however this was very hard to access and felt like it was encroaching on the private areas of property. Speaking further to the private areas of property ; We did not further explore the property to scope it out for our wedding and/or accommodation after wedding for our immediate family. It was not obvious where private property areas began. We saw the female owner on arrival, this was very nice touch, we began with high hopes. Gardens & dogs were lovely. Sheep & chickens were also a nice addition, however are not where accommodation is, they are off driveway. It was an ok stay, but it easily could have been amazing with more attention to guest care and cleaning the room properly.

Don't be fooled by the exterior of the building, the rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff have thought of everything down to the coffee maker and chocolates on the bedside table.

Lovely place to stay and hosts were very friendly and accomodating.
