   We greeted warmly by the hosts who gave us a tour of the spacious, clean, and tastefully appointed B & B. They showed us where things are in the kitchen but we’re always available if we needed them. We had a room with a private bath and doors opening out to the wrap around porch. The porch faced a beautiful park. The location is in a residential neighborhood but walking distance to restaurants and the Botanical Gardens. We will return!

   Very friendly elderly Chinese lady who owns the B and B, her English isn’t the best but she made us feel very welcoming and provided breakfast for us and catered to our needs. Lovely huge house with many rooms and other guest. Had one of the best nights sleeps I have had in a long time, bed was comfortable and everything was super clean and tidy. Bathroom was great, hot showers and complementary shower gels and shampoos. Very close to the airport and the royal botanic gardens is just next door. Would definitely recommend staying here. Great price and great hospitality!

   1. The room has no heating. 2. The bed mattress was very hard. 3. The Bathroom has no Hygienic paper. I was very cold at night, the mattress was so hard it was like sleeping on the floor and I could not do my physiological needs. I really do not recommend it.

   It is a very big nice and clean house nearby the botanical garden. It is a quiet place. The bed is comfortable. The shared shower is very good. The chinese owners speak just a little bit english, but we had a good conversation and fun with the translator. They are very friendly. We had a good time and would recommend to stay there. Attention: There was no sign on the street, so look for the housenumber of the B&B. Don't go through the botanical garden like maps shows. Knock on the door.

   Big house. Very clean and quiet. Close to highways and the airport. There are some sushi and Chinese takeaways 5 minutes walking away. Being right next to Auckland botanic garden was the part i loved it the best. It's like you have a private garden 100 ha big!! The owners were always smiling and providing everything we asked. And guess what, i even surprisingly found a public free pool hiding in the bush.

   The hosts were very friendly and would attend to our needs when understood. Only downside was there was a lack of communication due to the language barrier since they only spoke in Chinese and very little English. Very minimal necessities ie. Two pillows for a large bed, one towel each and creaky bed. Was cold during the night as only one thin duvet is provided. Not a lot of privacy, it feels like your sleeping in a stranger's home. The breakfast was below average, toast, yoghurt and muesli. No signage outside so we weren't sure whether we were at the right place. CASH ONLY NO EFTPOS.
