The large corner room in David's house was exactly what I hoped for upon my arrival in Auckland after a long journey via three airplanes. The room was spacious and the bed super comfortable. The shared bathroom has been tastefully updated and features an excellent walk-in tiled shower. David was a very nice host. He provided a thorough introduction to the space upon my arrival. He also recommended a walk on the western coast (at Bethells Beach) which I enjoyed.
