We stayed 2 nights when we arrived mid of December, and it was a perfect start of our Journey!
As it was so lovely there, we decided to stay there for our last night before we are heading back to Austria.
And again very nice, we fully recomend this place, very lovely couple and very close to city center!
See you!

A comfy, convenient, and clean place to stay!
For my brother and I—two travelers with a propensity for poor planning—Basker and Janet were a godsend.
They accommodated us last minute and welcomed us like friends. They provided a good parking spot, power for our van, and a clean and spacious shower and bathroom.
Ever knowledgeable, they helped us plan the rest of our trip, and had many tips for navigating New Zealand in a van. We hope to return whenever we next find ourselves in Auckland.

This was a perfect place to stay as we wanted to attend the bell ringing in Auckland.
Janet and Basker were super friendly and really nice to talk to. Although the parking is in the front we slept well as the road was not busy. For breakfast we could use the spacious area and furniture in the back and even the lounge. Bathroom was very cosy and also in the back. Highly recommended!

The best hosts you can imagine!
Absolute the best paid camping site during our stay in NZ. Nothing is a problem, we left some cloths they donated. They also helped us to recycle some electronics we did not longer need. Very clean bathroom and overall very much worth the money.

After one exciting month in NZ with a campervan i spent the last days at Janet and Baskers home.
It is cosy, perfectly clean and very comfortable. Most of all they are the most welcoming and friendly people i met in NZ.
Their home is located close to the centre of Auckland, which makes it very easy to visit the city and its attractions using public transport. Basker gave me a ticket to use bus and train.
Anyone who intents to visit NZ should stay at Janet and Bakers house. In my case it was the perfect end of my vacation in NZ. The last day after returning the campervan at the airport Basker picked me up for a sightseeing tour to several locations in Auckland.

Janett & Basker created an incredibly welcoming atmosphere.
They are very nice, genuine people and I truly felt invited into their home. Best shower in NZ. Also ask Basker for his cooking videos on youtube!

Basker and Janet are the nicest duo - very friendly and warm!
A hot, clean shower, a lounge area and space to hide indoors if you’d like. Location is great as well, just a short drive to Westfield where there’s Kmart and Woolworths. Hope to be back again!

Great place to start your New Zealand trip.
Hosts are very friendly and involved. Any questions you have they can answer and anything you could need is close by. Facilities are great, though in winter the windows are also open a lot so it can be a bit cold while showering but other than that it has everything you need.
When we left the lady also gave us 2 beanies because she said it will be cold on the southern island and we didn't have any hats. She knitted them herself and they fit perfectly and are nice and warm.
Price you pay for the stay is well worth it.

Basker and Janet were THE MOST welcoming and humble people I have ever met.
As soon as I arrived, they invited me into their home for tea, they showed me the CLEANEST bathroom and made me feel soo welcome in a new city, country and home. They were extremely accommodating and looked out for me, I felt very safe and happy here! Thank you, Basker and Janet, I will be visiting again!

Brilliant place to stay!
Baz and Janette the owners are simply the best.
Great priced, location is so close to the city, and was just overall a perfect addition to our trip. Would highly recommend anyone visiting Auckland to come here for a comfortable night sleep / gorgeous shower & bathroom / peaceful night sleep.

We really enjoyed our stay with Janet & Basker.
The double room is very nice and very well equipped with your own bathroom. In front of the room there is a garden to relax in. There is free parking along the street and they are really close to town. Janet & Basker are great hosts and we had a lot of nice conversations with them over a cup of tea. They are very open and friendly people, they helped where they can and are on hand with tips and tricks. We would like to thank you both very much for the wonderful time you made unforgettable for us.

We had an amazing experience thanks to the hosts Janet & Basker in their little oasis in the middle of Auckland.
The place has all you could possibly need. Thank you!

Wir waren zwei Nächte bei unseren Gastgebern und konnten ihre Gastfreundschaft sehr genießen..
Viele Tips bekommen. Gemütlich im Garten gefrühstückt. Ein gutes Badezimmer kann shared genutzt werden. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und würden sofort wieder kommen.
