However, our check-in experience was a bit stressful. We arrived around 5pm but were unable to reach the host initially. After some time, she called back and mentioned that she had forgotten to send the check-in instructions with the key information. There were also quite a number of house rules and requirements after arrival that were not clearly stated on the booking page. For example, the washing machine is not available for short-stay guests. Check-in itself was simple once we received the instructions, but check-out requires guests to complete quite extensive cleaning. We did our best to leave the place tidy, but the cleaning took quite a bit of time and delayed our next travel plans. It may be helpful for future guests if these expectations are clearly outlined on the listing in advance 我們大概入住五點多，房東聯繫不到，然後過了一陣子她才回撥回來，然後才說他忘記把入住的鑰匙訊息傳給我 入住後的注意事項非常多，所有項目都應該要在平台頁面就要揭露，像是洗衣機其實不提供給短租客人使用 入住非常簡單，離開要自己打掃全部，我覺得我們整理得蠻乾淨的，但確實整個清潔花了我們不少時間，影響下一個行程" [](https://expedia.com/St-Arnaud-Hotels-Sunny.h33662399.Hotel-Information) ![Mataki Motels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/5000000/4400000/4397900/4397863/41297972_y.jpg) ### Mataki Motels 10/10 Excellent "Perfect" [](https://expedia.com/Murchison-Hotels-Mataki-Motels.h4397863.Hotel-Information) ![Off The Beaten Trail Accommodation & Bike Tours](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/4000000/3980000/3978300/3978270/a160a8f9_y.jpg) ### Off The Beaten Trail Accommodation & Bike Tours 8/10 Good "Beds rather firm.
