Pretty much a five-star hotel experience in a BnB. Clean and nicely decorated place with a homely feel (it is afterall their home). Nice, comfortable bed and room. Lots of effort is put into the small details, making it feel like a well-run hotel. Even came with a nice and simple breakfast, nicely laid out.
Nani and Michael are warm and lovely hosts too, helping me with suggestions for my next destinations of my roadtrip. It was a pleasure chatting with them.
Definitely a good base for exploring New Plymouth and the taranaki area!
