Perfect stay near airport pre-early morning flight. Bus 38 leaves every 30min from 05-ish and took me to airport within 20min, the AT HOP card reader went down so I even got the ride for free!
Easygoing host who has lots of cool OE "Overseas Experiences" traveling, was really nice to talk to. Room is nice and clean with a hot shower and comfortable living room+kitchen. Easy to get groceries and dinner from nearby Pak'n'Save and Kiwi Roast, 18 min walk or 5min busride with 38 or 32. Great value to stay stress-free the night before a flight!
