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!

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!

They deserve a "best bathroom for travellers" trophy too.
Would definitely go out of my way to stay here 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.

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.

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.

A perfect place for exploring Auckland.
Janet was an excellent host with plenty of local information, tips and tricks. There is room on the drive for two vans with electric hook up for one of them. Use of a large garden with tables and a bbq. Also excellent washroom with large, hot shower. Morningside Station is 10 minute walk with direct access to central Auckland. (Make sure that you already have a HOP card as he station is unmanned and does not have a machine). We spent theee nights here and would thoroughly recommend it. Many thanks Janet and Basker.

By far the best place I stayed in all of the north island.
Basker and Janet are so lovely, and went above and beyond to help me in several ways. On top of that all, the wifi is great, the bathroom is clean and modern, and it’s in a great centrally located spot. And it’s super affordable! If you get the chance, I highly recommend staying here.

Basker and Janet were so welcoming and friendly.
We had access to a really clean bathroom + hot shower and power. Our van was around 7.2m long and we were able to slide in, but any larger might be tricky. Lots of bakeries, restaurants, etc within walking distance! Thanks for a great stay!!

At the end of our month trip through New Zealand we couldn’t have asked for better hosts than Basker and Janet.
Their hosting is second to none and they are extremely helpful giving us local tips and tricks.
In our last day before parting we sat and had coffee chatting which was a lovely gesture.
Would recommend anyone visiting Auckland to make this one of their stops as they give parking in the front of their house in their garden with use of a lovely bathroom and shower.

Lovely place to stay in the center of Auckland!
Janet and Basker are wonderful hosts, offering anything you may need on your journey. They graciously opened their home, granting a Wi-Fi, a hot shower, laundry, and kitchen services. As an international traveler in a camper van and on a budget, this place was truly a blessing. Not to mention all of the great local tips and suggestions they were able to give about surrounding areas to travel to. You definitely won’t regret staying here!
