I had a great time staying at Peter's place this past summer. The space was very clean with trendy decor. He lives in a beautiful area on a hill which is more secluded and rustic/trendy than a typical urban area. The space is probably suitable for a single person traveling. As he noted, there was no cable TV when I was there - however I did not find this to be an issue. The streets in Auckland in his area tend to be very narrow. You can park on the street, however I would not recommend this - the space in his driveway is better. He has a washing machine in the garage next to the living space with a drying rack. Peter was an excellent host. Would recommended to anyone.
