We booked this place during the first month of our relocation to Auckland until we found a rental house. The rental places in Auckland are terrible so do not expect any standards in this city! The place is an average value and could be your choice if:
1) You are OK with a dog barking near your window late at night.
2) You do not cook very often and eat outside.
3) You do not wash the dishes since there is no hot water in the kitchen.
4) You use a low amount of electricity since using slightly above average will kill the whole electricity and requires resetting the breakers.
5) You are used to a village-like neighborhood, which has nothing but houses.
However, the owners are responsible people and can solve any problem instantly. Communication was easy and straight forward. The place is recommended for singles or couples who stay out and just need a place for sleeping at night and love puppies.
