Penny is a fabulous, friendly and welcoming host. The house is light and airy, the bed divinely comfortable and the room has double doors opening out onto a small private verandah. The thing I loved the most was the private outdoor deck area at the back of the house where you could eat a meal, sit with a wine, or just chill out. The shared bathroom arrangement works well as it is situated between the bedrooms. Everything you need is right there. It was a short walk to the dairy, restaurants and bus stops at the end of the road. Meadowbank Mall was only a 15 minute walk away. This was my first AirBnB experience and I'll be booking with Penny again if I do further courses at St Johns College.
