Paula is a fabulous host and her place was clean, beautifully equipped and in a great location. She went the extra mile with providing a cheese plate upon arrival, plus breakfast necessities including coffee, cream and butter. The weather was very wet during my stay but she saved me numerous times by providing an umbrella for my use during my stay. There is no ice machine but she provides ice whenever I needed it, which was super helpful. The flat is also very close to downtown Kingsland and Grey Lynn as well as right next to a lovely hiking path that can take you towards downtown Auckland or the zoo, depending on your needs. I highly recommend this home. Absolutely fabulous
