Judy is a wonderful host, very friendly but also leaves you with lots of privacy. I had to cancel my first night due to flight cancellations, and Judy was extremely understanding and quick to respond. The room was perfect for my weekend stay, simple and cozy with a nice view into the garden. There are numerous walking trails and coastal walks close to the house which was wonderful. Going to the CBD was also very easy with a direct bus just in front of the house.
Nestled in a quiet suburb away from the crowds, this was the perfect base for exploring Auckland!
