This was a comfortable place to stay in a quiet neighborhood. It's a bit far from the city center, but you can explore the North Shore area easily. Takapuna Beach was beautiful, and it's only a few minutes on the ferry from nearby Devonport to downtown. I got around fine using a combination of walking, public transportation, and Uber, though there were times when it would have been nice to have a car.
The room itself was clean and comfortable. Great value, highly recommended!
