It was great staying at Sarah's and Nick's place! Perfect location for visiting Auckland - short walk to centre and easy access to cool areas like Devonport, Ponsonby etc. Sarah always responded right away to any messages and sorted any issues I had within hours (like a leaking sink). She was also flexible with check out and extra beds.
It does feel more like staying in a hotel, than in a private flat which I usually prefer (because it is in a hotel obviously...), but on the other hand being able to use all the facilities of the hotel was great - I made use of the gym, the inside lap pool and the sauna several times!
I can definitely recommend!
