If you want to live like a local and enjoy a very nice, private spot, Karen’s place is for you. Great neighborhood location, walkable to cafes, Ponsonby Road and with easy access to the bus line to the CBD/waterfront. The kitchen has all new appliances and is fully stocked with everything one would need to prepare meals. There is a brand new gas grill on the front deck and private outdoor space front and back. Karen provided very helpful info about the neighborhood. And there is ample parking out front. Terrific 9 day stay!
