This was a great base for our family, a short drive to Eden Park, the zoo and MOTAT. The neighborhood is pleasant, with a nice park located a block away. It was also lovely being able to get fresh vegies from the garden.
As mentioned in the listing, this is is the host's home. There are family photos, kids artwork etc, so simetimes it felt a little like housesitting for a friend - not a bad thing, just a different vibe to the impersonal AirBnBs that seem to be the norm these days. Like any family home there is some wear and tear but this just gave the place a nice lived-in feel.
Our daughter LOVED reading all the books - there is a massive selection - and the big tub of duplo was awesome for keeping her busy. It was also super useful having a washing machine.
Lovely host with clear communication. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us!
We'd definitely stay here again.
