Helen is a helpful and thoughtful host with great communication. Studio is in a good location for so much - airport, beach, Mount Maunganui, good cafes, supermarket and other shopping. Was attending a conference at Baypark Stadium which was only a 10 min uber/taxi drive or 30 minute walk away. This is a new build/conversion and whilst a small studio, it has been very tastefully fitted out with quality fixtures, decoration, linen, a comfy bed, with a lovely shower and eco products to use - thank you! We were there when the weather was gorgeously hot and it was so lovely having the patio door and windows open, but it did mean that it was quite noisy, as the road is busy. Recommended for a couple of nights stay.
