After 3 months of traveling Auz and NZ and after a week around Nelson (and few disappointing B&B here), we found Baywick Inn. I wish it was sooner. If you can - book it. One of the nicest one I've ever been and possibly the nicest one of all in Nelson city.
Great location, perfect room (Brookview), all very clean and spoiling, wonderful breakfast. One of the few places in north South Island with aircon and mesh - just because they care. Much more than any other place around. I found Janet and Tim to be nicest couple we've met around. Extremely nice and so respectful to our privacy - a really rare combination. I was sad to leave. This place and its owner made me feel good.
Before we left I told Janet they can charge more for the room, she answered: "it's not all about money. It is nice to give people more than they expect" (maybe in better English...) - unbelievable! And it says it all.
