Sabina is a top-notch host! The room and house was spotless, bed very comfortable, en suite bathroom large and convenient and parking in the neighborhood was very easy. Sabina is extremely considerate and proactive— offering suggestions, checking in to make sure you are doing ok, and is genuinely friendly and caring. It is a little tricky getting from Blockhouse Bay to Auckland CBD on public transit (buy an AT Hop card at the airport!) but it’s a breeze driving in/out of Auckland to the airport or anywhere else on the N. Island. Will definitely stay at Sabina’s again! 10/10
