My wife and I were looking for accommodation which was close to family, comfortable and where we would be able to have family visits. The apartment was all of that, very comfortable, well appointed, and private with good outdoor facilities and with lovely views. It is close to the harbour boardwalk, shopping facilities, and within walking distance to public transport. Parking is off site but easy, unlike much of Auckland.
The street is quiet and within 2 minutes terminates at a harbour park. Ute and her husband were excellent hosts, friendly and accommodating, making us feel so welcome. We hope to return there on our next visit to NZ and strongly commend it to other visitors
