It is a very nice stay. Location is his perfect with great parks near by, walking distance to the Auckland Zoo, 3 great beaches near by. Good connection to the city centre Auckland CBD, just 10 minutes drive, or 15 minutes on a bus. There are lots of really good cafes near by, Fish and Chips shop was awesome and Catroux. Judy helps with getting you arround, she provided all the necessary information and was very generous . Also Judy is excellent host, as she does take care of the little things travellers might need , like some coffee, tea, toast on arrival, some fruts etc. Facility had everything traveller would need. Great bed, which was very comfy, lots of pillows and fresh towels. Even shower gel was eco-friendly, which made me feel very happy about the atmosphere of the house and overall attitude of the house & the host.
