Absolutely great location! We were a short walk from the Redwood Forrest which has plenty of walking trails and nighttime tree walks with lanterns and lights. Quite spectacular! Loft was cozy and was glad to have the heater! Kitchenette was perfect with a kettle and French press and even a hot plate to help us make our own meals. Since it a loft be sure to be mindful of your head since my husband who is 6’3 kept hitting it on the sloped ceiling. Quiet and age neighborhood with plenty of street parking and seclusion. Highly recommend for you visit to Rotorua :)
