So lucky to have stayed here. We walked to Ponsonby, a creative neighborhood with lots of interesting restaurants, and all along the waterfront and through the surrounding university neighborhoods. Bus to the zoo. Easy transportation options from trains, bus and ferries just a few blocks away from the apartment. Pedram provided coffee, tea and more, a fridge, a spotless bathroom and a much appreciated washer. He’s a kind and friendly host and helpful all the way around.
