Jane’s place is a nice place to stay. Good accessibility, especially when your visiting nzl by car. Mt Eden is about a 5 min walk and lovely to visit. Downtown Auckland about an hour walk and not a very pleasant. Better to go there by bus. It’s a quiet neighbourhood and there’s a countdown supermarket 10 min from the house. Lovely stay, good parking facilities and good place to recover from a long flight but not so much to do in the area except for mt Eden.
