This is a great studio for any one/couple seeking a quiet and quality retreat close to the city & is very good value for your dollar. The location is excellent, being in Ponsonby, it's where many of Auckland's best down-to-earth restaurants, cafes & shops are (compared to the central city which really is rather rundown & a "hell hole" if you aren't fortunate to know a local).
Without being intrusive, both Peter & Judy have upbeat demeanours and are genuinely warm and helpful.
The upkeep of the property is immaculate. A welcoming surprise was to have the basics for breakfast provided, which we were very grateful for.
I would have no hesitation to stay here again (vs hotel) and hope I'm lucky enough that it's available next time I'm in NZ!
