We were in transit between Rotorua and Wellington, and wanted a stop off place halfway in between. It is in a relatively rural setting. Her recommendation to go to the Halcombe Tavern was excellent for experiencing the small town pub atmosphere. The breakfast provided was good. She asks that we wash, dry and replace the used utensils and plates, which was no problem whatsoever. She is trying to keep the room charges at a minimum. The only reason for a four star rating was because we were unaware from the presentation on the Airbnb site that the bathroom was separate from our room and down the hall past the room of the other guests, who had their own individual bathrooms. en suite. I am an older man who gets up several times during the night to use the bathroom. The floor creaks, and I was concerned that I would disturb the other guests. Note for purposes of preparation that there were no toiletries or a hairdryer in the shower area and no robe in the closet to wear down the hall.
