Julia went well beyond the extra mile to make us feel welcome as shown by the way our accommodation was presented when we arrived late at night. It was in fact much better than we expected - clean and spacious, yet it had a warm and homely atmosphere. And we certainly did not expect a stocked up fridge and pantry with a choice of breakfast cereals, jams, etc. to make this a true Bed & Breakfast! As for the bed, that was super comfortable too. And Julia's scrumptious home baked goodies that she had put in a bag hanging on our front door knob every morning just added that special touch.
The location was peaceful and quiet while being close to the beautiful Te Henui Walkway, the Coastal Walkway and East End Beach, and only a 20 minute walk to the CBD.
