Jon's place was a wonderful find. Don't be put off by not being in the central city as the view from the apartment was worth the small drive. The apartment was super clean, large, warm and welcoming. Jon was a great host without being intrusive, in fact we didn't get to meet him, but he made himself available via text. Access to the property was easy with a key code. Jon actually made the apartment available before the check in time. Jon suggested excellent local tips and had extra touches such as chocolates. Easy access to the walking track which takes you into the city or towards Port Chalmers. A great walk up behind the apartment to Signal Hill. I would thoroughly recommend a stay here as excellent value for money.
