Sue is a fantastic host. The moment I got to her cottage, she began helping me plan the best way to use my short amount of time in Auckland. She had a ton of brochures and pamphlets as well as personal tips and advice. She even offered me rides when needed! The cottage itself it a beautiful, fun place to stay. I wish I could have stayed longer to enjoy the amazing back yard and explore the neighborhood. And of course, I wish I had more time with Sam! An adorable dog makes any stay better in my opinion.
