Perfect place to stay after a long flight from the UK, the absence of a TV wasn't an issue for us as we only really needed somewhere to crash and recover, this was perfect for us, close enough to the airport, but really quiet away from the Auckland bustle. Melanie was a great host, making us feel welcome, had no cause to call on her for anything, but confident that she would be able to resolve any issues if necessary. Really enjoyed our stay. Highly Recommended
