Taupo short stay

All in all it was a great property, we have stayed there before. Just a couple of things, the vacuum bag was extremely full and the vacuum stopped working, I looked everywhere for a replacement bag but could not find any, we have left the vacuum downstairs by the front door. Also the single bed in the downstairs bedroom was broken before we got there so we could not use it. With that said it is a great location for us and would stay there again.

Clean & tidy and plenty of room for eight of us

Clean & tidy and plenty of room for eight of us. Maybe lacked lounge seating for that number. Waste disposal not working and a few of the taps are about to give up but they were minor points in an overall great stay.

Thanks for the feedback! Will definitely pass on your comments to the property manager. Hope to see you again soon!!
