This is a wonderful, loving home with caring, hospitable hosts. I was traveling alone and stayed with Richard and Olivia for six nights. It was always wonderful to come “home” to conversation after my busy days of touring. The room was wonderful; large and comfortable with luggage racks, a closet, a bureau, night stands, and lots of space in which to unpack. There was even a charging cord for phones on the nightstand! I bought breakfast food and made my own eggs and toast, which was a welcome change from cereal every morning. I was able to wash and dry my clothes....dryers are rare in NZ.
Bus transportation is half a block away, and it takes about 15 minutes to get into town, with frequent bus service. I was very happy staying with Richard and Olivia and hope to be able to stay with them when I return to Auckland.
