Not a bad little space at all. Good location- walkable to most things in Takapuna and good bus services to things elsewhere. John was friendly and welcoming. The space was clean and tidy and despite the limited kitchen equiptment for cooking (which is clearly explained in the bio) there were a good range of utensils.
The only things that stopped this from being a perfect experience for us were 1) the blinds in the bedroom didn’t do a particularly great job of keeping the room dark, so were weren’t able to sleep as long as we would have liked and 2) despite flagging that we were vegan when we booked and being told that research would be done into suitable local options for eating out, this didn’t happen. In fact the milk and spread we were left in the fridge was dairy, so we can only assume this was completely forgotten. A shame really, as it meant we spent precious honeymoon time searching through restaurant websites online. Still, overall a nice place and host!
