Tanya was a perfect host. When we arrived she and her husband were both welcoming. Tanya gave us information about the studio, gave us tips on the area for restaurants (Siostra Bistro was delicious) and transportation which was so helpful. The bus stops, cafes and grocery stores were all within walking distance. The studio is in a nice neighborhood and it was private, quiet and cozy. Everything was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. The coffee, tea and milk was great to have in the mornings. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it if you're in Auckland. Thank you, Tanya, for a great three day!
