The last couple of days we had a wonderfull stay at edwin and riona. Their house is a fine location for getting around Auckland, because you are 15 min away from the centre and most things that are worth seeing.
The room was nice, we had our private entrance and doors that could be set open (which in the summer is a plus).
Unfort, the house itself is a bit noisy. The room downstair which we used is right under the kitchen and living area so im guessing thin floors make that sometimes not the best room to be in.
Other than that it was great stay. Edwin and Riona were a great host.
