Even we stayed with the host in the same house, actually we lived on a separated floor where our bedroom with balcony and a privacy living room with TV, neat and tidy toilet and bathroom with fluffy towels. Rooms' windows face with good sea view.
Besides, kitchen,washing machine and garage amenties can be used.
We had spent 20 mins walk to the Mount Victoria outlook and drive 8 mins to city center NW supermarket.
Host is friendly and helpful, we therefore to recommend Amanda's house for who want to stay in Wellington city center.
