Susan’s AirBnB is wonderful! Oh! And Susan is too! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We had been traveling for the month, with big heavy luggage that needed to go to the US. Our decision to leave the bulk of our luggage in storage at the airport worked very well since the area is steep and the bedrooms are upstairs.
We arrived and fell in love with this accommodation. The covered decks and comfortable outdoor spaces are amazing. The home is beautifully decorated, and our bed was ultra comfortable. Shower has wonderful water pressure and (as is typical in NZ), HOT water.
We love the location—easy access to CBD and Parnell shops and restaurants, but in a quiet location. The area does have very steep hills for walking (Susan did not exaggerate!) but what views! If you are new to Auckland, I would definitely recommend using public transportation, cabs, Uber, etc. because the roads are narrow, steep, and parking is extremely limited.
I highly recommend this accommodation and host!
