We loved our stay in Judith's place. It's probably one of the most well thought out Air bnb's that I've stayed in. The unit had everything we needed and nothing more- she'd even put a small pottle of milk and yoghurt in the fridge for us on arrival and the place was very clean and comfortable.
It is definitely a decent walk to the shops/amenities but only a 5min hop to the beach which was perfect in the hot Napier summer.
Judith herself was is very nice and had the perfect amount of presence on our trip. She gave great suggestions on things to do and was very easy to communicate with.
I would definitely recommend Judith's bnb for your trip to Napier and I would stay here again.
