Swapna and her family are lovely warm welcoming people. The house is very clean, the guest room is at the far end of an upstairs hall, away from the family and right next to the bathroom, which is shared, but I never saw any one as I was only there barely one day with an early start.
Uber to Auckland international airport was $22
There is a very good Chinese takeaway and Fish and Chip shop and a small Superette a few minutes walk away, with a quiet park to eat it in a few steps from Swapna’s house.
