Don and Rachel were perfect hosts - super helpful and great to chat with. This was a fantastic way to spend my last night in NZ (especially after weeks of driving around in a tiny campavan). The room (most of the bottom floor of the house, really) really is quite spacious, and I was welcome in the rest of the house. All quite relaxed, and I had no issues. The location is great with a nice city view as long as you have a car. Definitely recommended to anyone looking for a relaxing visit to the Auckland.
