As a backpacker I crave a permanent place for a few weeks when I travel for a long time. A door to close. A space of my own and not to have to think about travel or food. So this would suit perhaps a backpacker looking for some time out for a week or so. All is asked of you is to make an effort and help keep the place in top shape.
BTW Dunedin City Centre is 30 minutes away.
