We enjoyed our stay. The place was spacious and clean. Good location for getting around Petone and onto Jackson St etc. The traffic noise was pretty relentless though; until late at night and starting up again early in the morning (commuter traffic). The children's room is on the road side too. The house is on a busy intersection - corner of Te Puni St and the Esplanade and it's not fully fenced. So not super child-friendly (with young kids).
