We stayed here as a long stay for two months.
Alice is very friendly and always offering to help. Although there is no laundry facilities in the unit, she regularly offered a change of bedding and linen.
The unit is more spacious than the photos depict. Alice kindly moved the bed (at our request) from the kitchen to the back bedroom, which we preferred as it turns a studio into a one bedroom unit. The bed is very comfortable.
The kitchen and bathroom facilities are nice and modern. Kitchen suitable for basic cooking.
Proximity to the rear unit means it can be noisy depending on who is staying at the time and shared area feels uncomfortably close.
Wifi is available however we found it to be patchy at times.
Location wise - geographically a great area, walking distance to New Lynn and Kelston. Unfortunately the street itself is absolutely horrible. The houses on either side appear to be some sort of transient/halfway housing. There are huge piles of rubbish which are regularly burnt, and there is also regular fighting and shouting at all hours. Often we considered calling the police. But the main issue with the rubbish piles is pest attraction - despite regular cleaning we had a cockroach problem in this unit. Alice was understanding and offered to provide bug spray but ultimately the surroundings are not her fault and out of her control.
Parking is available but could sometimes be tight as there are frequent visitors on the property. Dog roams free but is not there all the time.
