Sadly my mum and I only stayed at Silke's place for one night, but it was the perfect welcome to Wellington. We arrived early on a perfect sunny day, and grabbed coffee and cake on the way to Silke's, which the three of us shared on her incredibly balcony, which has the most stunning views. The house is perched a top a steep hill, and the views seem to go on forever.
Stand out is Silke's incredibly welcoming hospitality. Her no fuss attitude was paired with an exceptionally clean house, with a great amount of tea and condiments for her Air BnB guests.
The next day we woke up and the weather had completely changed: windy and rainy. But even this is a remarkable experience gazing out from her window. Couldn't imagine a more gorgeous visual introduction to Wellington. Highly recommend Silke as a host, along with her fabulous house.
Tip: There's a bus stop right outside the house, and another close by at the bottom of the hill. It's worth planning your trip based on the bus timetable, as they differ a fair bit in frequency over the day.
