Summary: Good stay overall. Great location in Kaikoura - walkable to everything in town. Very nice renovated shower. This property should consider changing the name from "Bed & Breakfast" considering no breakfast is actually included despite the name. Some closer attention could be paid to cleaning - as the kettle was covered in limescale.
