We stayed in the poolhouse for a few weeks and it was amazing. Very well equipped, comfortable, quiet and clean. The location is very good for bus routes into central Auckland, and the train station is a 15 minute walk away. As other reviews mention the mall across the road is very handy and the Bakery up the road is amazing. Rhys and Bridget were fantastic hosts who gave us space and privacy but we're always on hand when we needed them. Thanks for a fantastic stay.
