Veronica was a wonderful, communicative host, and even helped me with booking my travel to the airport. She has a very clean, well-furnished flat in a convenient location, with short walks to downtown Auckland, the Auckland waterfront area, and the Ponsonby district. There is a good sized park a couple blocks from her home as well. Also available is a recreation center right outside her door with a workout area, pool and spa. I highly recommend Veronica's place to a single traveler or a couple.
