My boyfriend and I stayed in the downstairs studio of Anne and Alan's apartment. It was also our first experience using Airbnb so we're unsure what to expect. The converted stable definitely has a wow factor and tastefully decorated too. The apartment had everything we needed and made good use of the space available. The welcome letter left by Anne and Alan was also lovely and helpful too. The neighbourhood was quiet with great views of Mount Wellington and had some nice cafes within walking distance. It was very close to the centre of town but still had a village feel to it. The only thing about the downstairs studio is that you can hear everything that's happening in the upstairs studio so there were some noisy moments and there wasn't much light in the studio. Apart from that, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again, maybe the upstairs studio next time. Thanks, Anne and Alan!
