Gorgeous view, the rest just ok.
The view is great but seems like almost anywhere on the hills in Queenstown would be. I emailed our host before booking to ensure that both bedrooms had at least queens. He assured me that they had recently changed out the double for a queen in one bedroom so that both had queens. In fact, they had not so one was a queen with a gorgeous view and one was a double with no view. The third bedroom was a twin bed that was only appropriate for a dressing room (no closets or dressers in 2nd bedroom so thank goodness). The website indicated that there was a hot tub. There was NO hot tub. Despite turning on heat in all rooms, it was freezing. The unit sits above the garage which apparently has no insulation so the floors, especially in bathrooms with no carpeting are like standing on icebergs. The sink in the primary en-suite bath is so small that you end up washing your feet when you rinse your face. This problem could be avoided by the presence of a couple washcloths. Finally, I had booked for 3 nights and got confirmation of same several months ago. The day before arrival the host confirmed for only 2 nights. I was terrified that we would have to find something else at the last minute. I texted the host and he said he could add a night and immediately charged me for it. Don’t understand why this property got 10’s. The view is great but that doesn’t compensate for the other issues.
