I love this place!! It's peaceful location is easy to find and is perfectly positioned to explore Auckland from. A note of warning that the main road nearby can be very slow at peak traffic hours, but this is true of anywhere in Auckland. If you manage your timing, most of Auckland is your oyster in a very short time!!
There are limited cooking facilities, but this shouldn't pose a problem as part of the charm of the area is the choices of well priced restaurants and cafe's.
The space is very relaxing to come home to and very well appointed. There is no noise from your hosts or the neighbours and good off-street parking.
I will definitely book again next time I am in Auckland.
