This place was a big disappointment. We have stayed in dozens of Airbnb’s around the world, including several on our current five week trip in Australia and New Zealand.
For those of you considering this place, here are some things to consider:
When we entered the house, there was a musky, sour smell coming from the kitchen. This persisted for the duration of our stay. Interestingly enough one of the bedroom windows was locked open.
The three bedrooms are located along one of the roads on the corner where this house is located. The roads are heavily used and are quite noisy during each morning and afternoon commute times.
From a location standpoint, the walk to Ponsonby Rd is a very steep uphill climb and it is 1.5 km to Ponsonby Central.
We had difficulty with the lock-box on arrival and departure.
We just didn’t feel the place was clean: particularly the kitchen and common living areas.
On a positive note, there is a modern bathroom with a great shower and the house has very fast WiFi.
If we were to stay in Ponsonby again, we would not stay at this Airbnb and could not recommend it to future guests.
