The house is great for just 2 persons and has some nice details about it. The light that flows inside from the many windows, the large first floor and the back garden are great.
Ponsonby is a great location while staying in Auckland. There are a lot of restaurants, bars, coffeehouses around and some stylish shops and it's not far from the center.
The house could've been better cleaned, specially the floor. The host should give the opportunity for people that might want to cook at home. There is a small portable woven, but no cooking utensils like pots or pans.
