I enjoyed my time at Janet and John's place. They are gracious hosts, always accommodating, always willing to give you tips on where to go and what to see. The accommodations are very comfortable and clean and the room has a small veranda for you to sit out on and enjoy your coffee, tea or wine. Sunshine and warmth always fills the room, and there is a wall panel in the room for AirCon during the summer months. Beautiful location, a 5 minute walk to the shops and restaurants at Mission Bay, or for a stroll along the beachfront. Easy access to downtown Auckland by car or public transport. It was very nice, I enjoyed my private time there!
