I recommend Shonas place for 2 couples or a family, the rooms were very nice and comfy. I went alone and it was big for me. Their house and the Airbnb is connected thru a door, so you are able to hear them, could be annoying for some that needs more privacy. Otherwise it's a very nice house and Shona and her husband are super friendly.I think it's a very good place to rest after doing the Tongariro crossing, because it's close to it. Also has a very nice bath to chill. Just a to keep in mind: if you take more than 5 minutes to do the check out the power will be off.
