As a first time user of AirBnB I have to say this was so much better value than staying in a motel. Our hostess provided us with a continental breakfast, coffee making facilities etc (including plunger coffee), hot chocolate etc. Her beds & pillows were really comfortable, we had a lot more room than normal & most importantly of all it was really quiet with no street noise. Can highly recommend Karen as a fab host & a great place to stay if you're visiting New Plymouth.
