I cannot say enough nice things about Richard. He was by far the most generous and hospitable host I’ve ever had on Airbnb. We stayed here while hiking the Tangoriro crossing and even though we were leaving very early he made sure to have breakfast on the table for us. He goes above and beyond for his hosts to make sure they are comfortable. He is also great company and has a lot of great stories to share from his travels around the world. HIGHLY recommend!!! Also his dog is very calm and friendly!
