Shivaun and Grant's place was a perfect location for one day in Auckland. They have a lovely home. I only had the pleasure of meeting Grant, and he was a great host. He kindly let me drop my things off before check-in since I was arriving so early. There is about a five minute walk to bus stop which took you right down the heart of the city. Easy access for shopping, cafes, bars, and the harbor. I returned to Ponsonby neighborhood for dinner, which had lots of trendy chic places to eat and drink. I just wish I had more time! I would definitely recommend this place.
