Corine s place is set in the beautiful Whangaparoa area. There are views everywhere you look. It's a simple studio, bedroom, bathroom, with a kitchen table It was pretty clean, quiet, peaceful and suited my dog and I perfectly. He could wander around or lie on the balcony and watch the view without a worry about cats or cars going by as we just had bush around us, and were up high. Corine and her husband were kind and friendly. I got the WiFi to work which was helpful. It just needed a microwave but they were kind enough to heat up my dinner for me..it was comfortable for us for the night overall.
