Convenient, comfortable, super clean place to stay, handy for public transport to town.
Katrina is a lovely warm host with great information on where to eat and visit.
This was a good base for us to walk the bays, the green belt, visit the wonderful Zealandia (take the tour) and the Botanic Gardens.
Highly recommend the Maranui cafe in Lyall Bay, the Old Quarter in the city, the Cable Top Eatery.
