Charlene’s place was ideal for our needs, we flew in, slept and then went out to Waiheke Island. The apartment itself is perfect for a city base whilst being out and about. It does get warm as the air conditioning only reaches the corridor, but the top tip from Charlene about leaving the doors open when you get back after a day out helps to cool it down!! Overall it was just right for us to spend 2 nights after a day of travelling before heading off to explore the rest of Nee Zealand! Charlene was a good host and gave us clear info when we arrived, explaining the local amenities and helping us get our bearings...considering this was at 10pm it really was above and beyond. Many thanks.
