- We loved the character of the Victorian villa and the colourful decoration. Our room in the main house was not large but was well equipped with its own lovely outside seating area. Ponsonby has lots of lovely shops and restaurants.Breakfast was great.

Cons -
- The room did not have much hanging space or many coat hangers. Some more drawers would be useful. This was ok for a short stay.
- Not as arty as the description suggested. I had have preferred a room inside the main building. Its more like a guesthouse or  and b rather than hotel. Expensive considering its low season. I could have stayed in a central Ibis fo
