Angela's place is really central in Wellington which makes it convenient to explore the hilly city, we walked almost everywhere using Angela's place as the base. We did pick up a rental car so we can visit Mt Victoria plus other sights, and we were able to find free on-street parking overnight about 10 min walk away in the Aro neighborhood, in which a really famous micro brew set up shop, along with a few hipster bars and cafes. The size of the room is a little smaller for us coming from the US given two people sharing, but host were super friendly and the cleanliness of the place more than made up for it.
