Jude is an amazing host. Super friendly, helpful and such a great person. Prior to our arrival we received all necessary information how to get to her house. She also picked us up from the bus station. The house is almost directly at the ocean and it’s just a short walk to the beach. The room is really great with an incredibly comfortable bed. There is enough space to stow all your belongings. The bathroom has everything you need and is as well as the room extremely clean. You can also use the kitchen and living area upstairs. We had long and wonderful conversations with both Jude and her brother and learned a lot about Auckland and New Zealand in general. This was for sure our best Airbnb experience so far and we can highly recommend it.
