Sea View Guest House

Property was average but Ok for the price we paid. Hot tub was not clean but we did book last minute.

The hosts were nice and friendly. The pool and the view from it were fantastic. The walking area around the crater is lovely. While the room and bathrooms felt a bit dated, and the dishes were all plastic, we enjoyed the nice private terrace area. Breakfast was a bit disappointing. We liked that it is close too Devenport, and Ponsonby rd.

We were greeted on arrival which was pleasant and were shown around the outside of the property first. We were then taken inside and upstairs to our area. On arrival we noticed the place looked a bit tired on the outside, little did we know what was to come!! I have taken photos incase of any dispute. I understand everyone has different cleanliness standards but when you are renting out an area of your house you can at least make sure the basics are in order. The house was full of dust and cat hair. My son slept the night in the trundler bed and was greeted by a handful of cat hair. The walls and surfaces in the house and our area for the night were filthy, all marked and dirty. The bedding and towels were very old and tired. The plug in the smaller room was loose and sparked when my phone charger was plugged in. The spa pool had a greasy yuk film of dirt around the edge. The ceilings in the bathroom and main sleeping area have obviously been subjected to water damage and were all peeling off. There was mould around the skirting boards in the bedroom behind the bunk beds. I could go on. We were just glad none of us are allergic to animals as it would have been an even more unpleasant stay. We had no choice but to stay for the evening as we didn't have anywhere else to go. Needless to say, I would not be recommending this stay to anyone and would be embarrassed if it was my property.

Awsum guesthouse. Will come again

We were greeted by Melissa in such a friendly way. We really enjoy the grounds here, the view and pool area overlooking the city of Aukland is amazing. It was the perfect last night of vacation.

Glenn was polite and accommodating. Great view, comfortable.
