Kate was a terrific host and provided much more than expected eg milk, muesli, yoghurt and begels so we could make breakfast. The studio is lovely and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Just at the end of the road is Grey Lynn village with shops, bars, cafes and restaurants. We went to Malt and had a good meal and tasty beers. You can catch a bus to downtown in the main street too. Altogether a great place to stay!
