Just as described. Clean place walkable to ponsoby area with nightlife and shops. Nick is a nice guy that I had a many great conversations with. Nice pup and cat and a great outdoor area if you want to have a coffee in the morning or a meal. We walked into ponsoby for dinner and were only there one night, cute neighborhood except all of the shops were closed by 5pm in the summer so we were bummed about that. Only night in Auckland don’t know if we did it justice.
