We had a great stay at Brendan and Natalie's place. It fit what we were looking for as it's close to the city centre (approx 20 min walk), just up the street from a supermarket & cafes, across from a large park, and had the space we needed.
Only negative was the building's elevator was out of order (and had been for a couple/few weeks before our trip), but they communicated this to us well in advance, so it wasn't a surprise (and of course not in their control). We were fine with this, but if you're not comfortable with 3-4 flights of stairs when you're going in or out, best to check this in advance.
The unit had plenty of amenities for a week's stay...cooking utensils, spices, coffee/tea, grocery bags, tupperware, towels, etc. The view from the window/balcony is great, with an amazing nighttime view of the Sky Tower lit up. We took advantage of the gym & pool a couple times...it's in a separate building, but close & easy to get to. Overall, a really nice "home away from home"!
