Betsy and Leigh have a lovely downstairs apartment at the end of a road in the residential neighbourhood of Remuera. We ended our six week trip in New Zealand at their place and felt very comfortable. We slept with open doors and looked at the green garden and surroundings all the time. Lots of privacy and space. The city centre is well within reach, but if you like the hustle and bustle of downtown Auckland this is not the place to be.
