The flat is in a brilliant location, only a few minutes walk from all the bars and restaurants in Ponsonby. It was great to be able to check ourselves in without needing to wait for the host, and also be able to park our car right outside the flat on the driveway. Dominic was very friendly and gave us lots of tips for the local area. We personally found the flat in need of a bit more cleaning, especially the kitchen and things like the mugs that weren’t totally clean. The listing doesn’t really show how awkward (or painful to walk on barefoot) the stairs to the bedroom are - so we had to leave our suitcases downstairs in the living area and keep running down to get stuff from them as they were too heavy/big to carry upstairs. The biggest issue for us, unfortunately, was how thin the walls are which meant we were kept awake until late due to noise, then woken up again early the next day. Some of the bedroom windows don’t have blinds or curtains so the room was in total daylight by around 5-5.30am which also means you can’t sleep in much longer.
