We booked Barry and Reena's place mainly so we could attend a concert at Mt Smart stadium. It is a really good location for this - uber trips were really affordable to and from the venue which worked out great for us.
Also a great location for Sylvia Park shopping trips and for accessing the motorway for going in to the city or heading south.
The house had everything we needed for our stay. It was well equipped, comfortable and as described.
Thanks :-)
