Marki is a wonderful hostess. She is very warm, responsive and took excellent care of my parents and 6 month old baby when my husband and I snuck out for a date day hiking the tongariru. It was really a please staying at her place. The one thing that perhaps we were not expecting was a small kitchenette with a small fridge and no stove. If that isn't an issue with you, you will love staying at her place.
