The house is located in a suburb close to the Airport, about 15 minutes' drive. It is situated about mid-way between the city centre and the Airport.
It helped us so much to be able to check in this house when our flight to Sydney was canceled due to Cyclone Gabrielle. All reasonably charged acccommodations near the Airport and in the City Centre were grabbed by despairing passengers.
Julian is a kind , helpful and friendly host, a great conversationalist. He keeps 2 friendly cats.
We had a nice room in a large old house which is full of charm and character, and which is fully refurbished.
The kitchen is well equipped.
Our room is situated in the back of the house, with an independent bathroom and a separate toilet. You need to go up and down a few steps when you use the bathroom and toilet. There are also a few steps outside the house, so it may be difficult for people with disabilities.
Our expereince was great.
