It's like a retreat in the middle of Auckland, so much of green around the house, quiet locality, you hear the birds chirpping and it's so peaceful. The view from the kitchen and common area opens up to the sea view which is just amazing. Patrick was really welcoming and friendly. He respects your privacy but is also always keen for a conversation. I really appreciate his help during my stay. I would highly recommend staying at his place if you're looking for a little paridise in Auckland.
