A nice place to stay - clean, warm, spacious and private. We felt very comfortable and had everything we needed at our disposal including cooking amenities, tea, coffee, milk, and ginger beer 🙂 Communication with the hosts was prompt and easy. The neighbourhood is very nice, though a bit far from the city center. Yet, the bus stop is 2 minutes away from the house. There is a big supermarket at a walking distance (10-15 min). We saw great tracks to walk along the sea shore but unfortunately had no time enough to explore the area. All in all, a very reasonable choice to stay in Auckland for a couple of days. We would highly recommend Liz and Bruce's place to couples or families up to four people.
