We loved our stay in Joanna's home! The room is very lovely and in close proximity to Ponsonby Road, which we think is one of the coolest neighborhoods in Auckland with many nice cafes, shops and restaurants. Thus you reach the CBD area by walking in less than 30 mins. Everything was perfect including the homemade breakfast in the morning and the lovely conversations with Joanna and her husband. We also greatly appreciated the portacot, toys and chair for our little one. We cannot recommend it enough and hope to be back one day!
