My family stayed in Mark's house for 1 month and it was a great experience.
Mark is a very caring host. When he found out that we were going to travel with a baby, he not only childproofed the house, but also brought in some toys and DVD's for her, which she enjoyed alot. Moreover, Mark is a helpful host. When we needed information about Auckland, he kindly provided it to us.
The house is nice and cosy. It has everything you need. And also the location is great, it's close to the city center, shopping mall, nice and big park.
We definitely had a nice stay in Mark's house. I would certainly recommend it.
