If you’re looking for somewhere to base yourself in South Auckland then this is the place for you. The house is close to the Papakura motorway on-ramp but far enough away that you’re not going to be kept up all night by traffic noise. There’s great cafes nearby, as well as other useful amenities like a pharmacy and dairy.
The house itself is spacious, with comfortable beds and an awesome heat pump. The wifi is excellent and there were no complaints of “lagging” by our teenager. As other people have noted, there is only the one bathroom (which contains a bath and a separate shower), which means some planning when it comes to bathroom usage, but there’s two toilets which is a bonus.
Dorathy’s instructions were easy to follow, both in finding and accessing the house.
