    The unit was very clean with very comfortable beds. It also exceeded our expectation as it included a spa bath which we weren't expecting so that was a pleasant surprise! For us, the location close to the central city was ideal and the staff were friendly.

    Beautiful building, very clean, great location and friendly host. We only stayed one night unfortunately and would definitely return if in Whanganui again. We walked easily into town. In fact, we only used the car to get to the beach. I was a little uncertain about the shared bathroom arrangement but the facilities were spotless.
