Barb and Michael are very nice! House was clean and tidy. But i prefer more like home stay BnB.We are 6 person live first floor. Barb offer we do the tongariro crossing $40 per person （come and pick up ）on the way to the crossing stop buy some bread and water $2 per person . Barb very kind rent the alpenstock to one of my friends. The tongariro crossing is not a good memory ,we was in the strong wind and raining do it. We don't have enough equipment to pass it easily but we still finished at the end . Washing machine and cloth dryer using each machine charge $10 per times so convenient for us !!
