Location: Central to everything that Auckland has to offer. Walking to distance to harbor from where you can take island tours. Walk to 5 minutes to Britomart from where Kiwi Rail offers trips around the country, as well as catch the Skybus to/from the airport. Walk to all the main shopping attractions on Queen Street and a bit further out, but still a nice walk away, is Ponsonby and Karangahape Rd. Within a few minutes there are multiple restaurant choices.
Host: Wonderful, accommodating and very good with communication. I needed an early check-in as I was flying in after a long trip from the States and was allowed in much earlier. Host was very kind and gracious to ensure a pleasant stay. Very attentive to detail.
The space: Impeccably clean and fully stocked with all your needs such as cooking utensils, dishwasher, laundry machine in the unit, ironing board etc. It is a compact unit, suitable for a single person or a couple. Very fast wifi internet was very welcome.
I would definitely stay here again and positively recommend this host to others.
