A friend and me as study abroad students, spent our first time in Auckland at Angelas airbnb. She welcomed us very warm and gave us a home so far away from home. She was always very welcoming and nice and we felt very comfy around her and her son. The house is also beautiful. Moreover there are many busses driving from Grey Lynn to the city which was very good for us.
I would definitely recommend everyone to stay at Angelas airbnb!
