We only stayed a couple of nights but Howard and Joan were very accommodating and welcoming despite us arriving late due to the train, with clear directions to their home. Their infamous 'bible' of the neighbourhood and things to do in the city is just as helpful as its reputation and the studio is cosy warm and comfortable. And we were delighted to find the room preheated for us.
Breakfast is continental and delicious with an array of teas and coffee to choose from. We were even offered room in the fridge and pantry, if we wished to cook, which we did not take advantage of considering the length of our stay.
Howard and Joan are lovely, warm people, with helpful tips and suggestions if required but absolutely not intrusive. For our first air bnb experience we feel very lucky we were hosted by them. Our short stay was very enjoyable and we highly recommend their home as your Wellington stop over or longer term accommodation. Thank you for having us.
