Darius' house is really lovely, he's done a great job decorating so that it feels stylish but still homely. The house is spotlessly clean and has every amenity you could ask for including a very well equipped kitchen.
The room is a really generous size for a single with two large cupboards, including one with a hanging rail. I felt that I had plenty of room for me and all my stuff for a 4 week stay.
The location of Darius' house is great with buses and trains into the town centre only a short walk away and Darius even has a bus card that you can load with money to make this cheaper. There is also a supermarket and shopping centre really close buy which makes life easier.
What really made this stay great was Darius. He's a really lovely genuine guy who made me feel really at home which I valued a lot given that I was staying with him for a long time. If I'm ever back in Auckland I will be sure to stay at Darius' again if I can.
